Marjorey is a modern, rare respelling of Marjorie, itself developed in Middle English from Margery, a pet form of Margaret. The line traces back through Latin Margarita and Old French Marguerite to Greek margarites, “pearl.” The later spelling Marjorie was likely shaped by association with the herb name marjoram. Widespread in medieval England through devotion to Saint Margaret and enduring in Scotland - helped by figures such as Marjory/Marjorie Bruce, daughter of Robert the Bruce - the name enjoyed a major revival in the early 20th century in the US and UK.
