mallery is French in Origin.
Mallery is a variant spelling of the English surname and given name Mallory, from Old French malheur 'misfortune' and malheureux/maloré 'unfortunate,' brought to Britain by the Normans. The medieval nickname described someone thought to be unfortunate or prone to misadventure; over time it settled as a hereditary surname in England and Ireland.
As a first name, Mallory appeared for boys in earlier records but shifted strongly to the feminine in North America in the late 20th century, boosted by pop culture (e.g., Mallory Keaton in the 1980s). Mallery remains the rarer orthography. Related forms include Mallory, Malory, Mallorie, Malorie, Mallori, Mallorey, and Mallary. Notable bearers of the surname include Sir Thomas Malory of Le Morte d’Arthur, which helped keep the name visible. The meaning is commonly given as 'unlucky' or 'ill‑fated.'
