History & Origin

Cordario is a modern American coinage rather than an inherited name, built from a Cor- opening and Dario, a form of the ancient Darius. Its Persian root is usually glossed 'possessing goodness,' and the name sits among rhythmic boys' names like Demario and Cordell. We trace its parts honestly rather than invent a single meaning.

It has always been rare, given to only about fifteen boys a year even at its small peak in the late nineteen-eighties. A boy named Cordario then is now in his thirties.

Did you know? The Dario inside Cordario carries a royal Persian pedigree: it is a form of Darius, the name of ancient kings, traditionally read 'possessing goodness' - a grand root inside a very modern American name.
