Pyry is Finnish in Origin.

Pyry is a modern Finnish given name derived directly from the common noun pyry, meaning "snow flurry," "snowstorm," or "blizzard." As a nature name rooted in Finnish vocabulary, it evokes swirling winter weather and landscapes. The name is used mostly for boys in Finland, though it can appear as unisex in modern use. It entered given-name use in the 20th century and became more visible with the late-20th-century preference for concise, nature-inspired names.

Because Pyry is a lexical form, it has few traditional variants; the spelling is fixed in Finnish and diminutives are rare. Related Finnish word-names with similar wintry imagery include Tuisku ("snow squall"), Myrsky ("storm"), and Lumi ("snow," usually feminine). Pyry sometimes appears in compound first names such as Pyry-Pekka or Pyry-Matti. Outside Finland it is typically kept in its original form and appreciated for its brisk sound and vivid meaning: a blizzard, a flurry, gusting snow.
