Pronounced PEH-ree, Perrie is a feminine given name rooted in English heritage, emerging as a variant of the surname Perry—itself derived from the Old English word for “pear tree.” This botanical heritage lends the name an understated solidity, appealing to parents who value a blend of classic foundation and modern distinctiveness. While it has never broken into the top tier of U.S. baby names, Perrie has maintained a modest yet consistent presence in Social Security Administration records—hovering near rank 900 over the past decade—indicating a steady, discerning appeal. The name’s crisp, single-stress syllable has also gained additional visibility through English singer Perrie Edwards, reinforcing its transatlantic resonance without sacrificing its approachable simplicity.
