Jacorey

Jacorey Origin and Meaning

The name Jacorey is a boy's name.

Jacorey is a modern masculine name that appears to be a creative blend of elements from names like Jacob (Hebrew for 'supplanter') and Corey (possibly from an Old Norse name meaning 'from the hollow' or an Irish name meaning 'from the round hill'). This distinctive combination name emerged primarily in African American naming traditions in the United States during the late 20th century. While never reaching high popularity rankings nationally, Jacorey saw increased usage in the 1990s and early 2000s. The name exemplifies the trend toward unique, sonorous names with recognizable elements combined in novel ways. Jacorey generally conveys a contemporary, distinctive quality while maintaining some connection to traditional naming patterns through its components.
