Marrey is in Origin.

Marrey is a modern English given name, usually a creative respelling of Mary/Marie. It stems from Hebrew Miryam, transmitted through Greek and Latin (Maria) into Old French (Marie) and Middle English (Mary). Scholars debate the root meaning; common readings are “beloved,” “wished‑for child,” or “rebellion.” Christian tradition also associates the name with “star of the sea” (stella maris), an epithet of the Virgin Mary.

As a given name, Marrey is rare in English‑speaking records and sometimes overlaps with the Irish surname Marrey. It functions primarily as a stylistic variant rather than a distinct etymology. Related forms and diminutives include Mary, Marie, Maria, Miriam, Máire, Maree, Mari, Molly, and May. Meanings and cultural associations mirror those of Mary.
