Jory
Meaning of Jory
Jory, pronounced JOR-ee (/ˈdʒəri/), is a spirited unisex name with Cornish roots—originally a regional twist on George meaning “farmer” or “earthworker.” Its warm, two-syllable melody carries the freshness of a sea breeze, striking a perfect balance between timeless strength and modern ease. Though it seldom soars into the top 800 in the U.S., lingering around the 900th spot with a few dozen newborns each year, that rarity is precisely its secret superpower. Like a smooth pebble skipping across calm water, Jory feels playful yet grounded, ready to grow alongside any child’s curiosity and dreams. For families craving a name that’s both classic and delightfully unexpected, Jory delivers.
