What is the meaning of the name Korie ?

Korie is Scottish Gaelic in Origin.

Korie is a modern English given name, a creative respelling that blends two streams: the Irish/Scottish Corey (from Gaelic coire, "hollow; cauldron," and the Irish surname O Comhraidhe, "descendant of Comhraidhe") and the short-form Cori/Kori from Greek-rooted Cora/Corinna (ultimately from Kore, "maiden"). Variants include Corey, Korey, Kory; Cori, Corie, Kori; and related feminines Cora, Corrie, Corinne, Corina/Korina.

Usage is unisex in the United States, more often feminine when spelled Korie. It entered U.S. data by the late 20th century, tracking the wider Corey boom of the 1970s-80s for boys and the rise of Cori/Kori for girls. Visibility spiked in the 2010s via Korie Robertson of Duck Dynasty. Though never a top-tier chart staple, it remains familiar yet uncommon, appealing for its brisk two-syllable sound and versatile roots. Meaning ranges from "maiden" (Greek line) to "from the hollow/cauldron" or "descendant of Comhraidhe" (Gaelic line).
