Torrey is a unisex name used more commonly for females in recent decades, though it maintains gender-neutral qualities. Derived from an English surname with Old Norse roots, it means 'from the hill tower' or 'from Thor's island.' As a place name, Torrey appears in several locations including Torrey Pines in California. The name peaked in the United States during the 1980s and 1990s but never reached high popularity rankings.
