Cormic Origin and Meaning

The name Cormic is a boy's name.

Cormic is a variant of the more common name Cormac, which has Irish and Gaelic origins. The name is derived from 'corb' meaning 'charioteer' and 'mac' meaning 'son', essentially translating to 'son of the charioteer' or 'chariot driver'. In Irish mythology, Cormac mac Airt was a legendary High King of Ireland known for his wisdom and just rule. While Cormic is less frequently used than the traditional spelling, it maintains the strong, masculine sound and rich cultural heritage of its origin. The name has never ranked among the top names in the United States or United Kingdom, making it a distinctive choice for parents seeking a name with Celtic roots but an uncommon flair.
