Korie
Meaning of Korie
Korie is a feminine given name in Anglo-American usage, formed as an orthographic variant of Corey—itself an anglicized surname from the Irish Ó Comhraidhe and cognate with Greek-derived names such as Cora and Corinne, from korē, meaning “maiden.” Data from the United States Social Security Administration document its intermittent presence since the 1960s, including an ascent into the top 800 by the mid-1970s, notable resurgences in the mid-1980s and early 2010s, and a rank of 921 in 2024 with 29 recorded instances. Uniformly pronounced /ˈkɔːri/ in American English, the name benefits from phonetic consistency, while its associations with youthful vitality, gender-neutral heritage, and modernized spelling yield a technically precise yet distinctive choice for female naming.
