Correy Origin and Meaning

The name Correy is a girl's name.

Correy is a feminine name that represents a spelling variant of Corey or Cory, traditionally used for both genders but now more common for boys. Originally derived from an Irish surname meaning 'from the hollow' or a Norse name meaning 'chosen of God,' Correy as a feminine form gained modest usage during the 1970s-80s when gender-neutral names became fashionable. The 'ey' ending gives it a slightly more feminine appearance than the masculine versions. While never reaching widespread popularity for girls, Correy maintains a contemporary sound with vintage appeal. This spelling variant offers a subtly feminine twist on the more commonly male Corey, appealing to parents seeking a slightly uncommon name with familiar pronunciation.
