Edry is in Origin.

Edry is a rare given name and surname with several plausible roots. In a Hebrew context, it can reflect Edrei (a biblical place associated with King Og of Bashan), often interpreted as “strong” or “mighty,” and it also parallels the Israeli Sephardi surname Edri/Edry found among Moroccan and North African Jewish families. As a family name, its explanations vary - sometimes treated as toponymic, sometimes linked by folk etymology to Hebrew terms for flocks or strength - so the precise meaning depends on tradition.

In English-speaking use, Edry functions as a sleek, unisex modern choice: a respelling of vintage Edrie (once used for girls), or a clipped, contemporary take on Ed- names like Edward, Edgar, and Edmund. Depending on that route, meanings range from “wealthy guardian” to “prosperous spear” or “protector.” Variants and relatives include Edri, Edrie, Edrei, and Edrey; nicknames span Ed, Eddie, and Edie.
