Korry
Meaning of Korry
The name Korry, a distinctive variant of the Anglo-Celtic “Corey” rooted in the Irish and Scottish word for a rounded hollow or cauldron, carries with it an understated sense of both solidity and subtle movement—much like a small stream winding through ancient glens. As an English-language pronunciation rendered KOR-ee (/kɔrˈi/), it marries familiar sounds with an unconventional spelling that appeals to parents seeking a name both approachable and singular. Data from the U.S. Social Security Administration reveal that, from the mid-1960s through the early 2000s, Korry consistently ranked in the high six-hundreds to mid eight-hundreds—peaking modestly in 1983 at 682—while most years saw just five to eight newborns bestowed with the name, save for a brief rise to 17 in 1993. This pattern suggests a steadfast if selective appeal: few bear it, and those who do form an almost exclusive circle, lending the name an aura of gentle distinction. Its cultural resonance hints at creativity, quiet confidence, and a nod to heritage, offering families an analytical yet warm choice that stands apart without shouting for attention.
