Edrie is English in Origin.
Edrie is a rare English given name with several proposed roots. It may be a pet form of Old English Edric (Eadric), from ead “wealth, prosperity” + ric “ruler, power,” meaning “prosperous ruler.” Others see it as a diminutive of Edris, the English/Welsh form of Idris - taken in Welsh as “ardent lord” and in Arabic tradition as “studious.” A further possibility links it to the biblical place-name Edrei, often glossed “strong, mighty,” adapted in modern spelling as Edrie.
Attested sporadically in Britain and North America since the early 1900s, Edrie skews feminine but is essentially unisex and remains uncommon. Variants and related forms include Edri, Edree, Edry, Edria, Edra, Edris, Edric/Edrick, and Edrei. Its brisk two-syllable sound pairs with contemporary choices like Audrey and Eden while retaining an antique English core.
