Greggory

Meaning of Greggory

Greggory, pronounced “greg-uh-ree” (/ˈɡrɛɡəri/), is a warm-hearted twist on the classic Greek name Gregory, which means “watchful” or “vigilant.” By doubling the g, it adds just the right touch of modern flair—think of it as Gregory’s adventurous cousin who still cherishes tradition. Though it never topped the charts in California, Greggory quietly claimed its place just outside the top 300 through the 1970s and ’80s and even saw five little boys given the name in 1997, making it a charmingly uncommon choice. Parents who choose Greggory often point to its timeless strength—echoing the kindness of St. Gregory—yet relish its unique spelling as a creative spark. In short, Greggory feels both familiar and fresh, a name that watches over its bearer with classic roots and a wink of individuality.
