If a trendy, gender-neutral name is more your style, take a chance on Korie, a name with Irish, German, and Greek roots. Although Korie may sound like a nickname, it's got an epic story to tell. While its German meaning of "God's peace" may inspire those who want to celebrate their faith, its Irish translation is a bit more for the spooky-inclined. Perhaps from the Irish word coire, meaning "cauldron," Korie will give you Hocus Pocus vibes with a side of pumpkin spice. Its variation Cory was probably inspired by Cora, the maiden name for the Greek goddess Persephone.
