Mallerey
Mallerey Origin and Meaning
Mallerey is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Mallory or Mallery. The original name derives from French surname Maloret, which came from a place name meaning 'unfortunate' or 'unlucky' from Old French 'malheuré.' Despite this somewhat somber etymology, the name has evolved into a pleasant-sounding choice with a contemporary feel. This particular spelling variation with the double 'l' and 'ey' ending gives the name a distinctive look while maintaining the familiar pronunciation. Mallerey has never been extremely common, allowing it to feel both unique and recognizable. The name offers the friendly nickname options of Mal or Mallie, and appeals to parents seeking a name with French influences and a modern spelling twist.
