History & Origin

Coreyon most plausibly builds on Corey, an Irish or Gaelic surname-name sometimes read as 'hollow' or 'seething pool,' extended with -on in the American manner. It surfaced as Corey itself was widely used in the nineteen-eighties and nineties.

Coreyon was never common, given to only about twenty boys a year at its peak around 1996, and it has stayed rare since. A boy named Coreyon then would be in his late twenties or thirties today.

Did you know? Coreyon extends the short and once-popular Corey with a lengthening -on suffix, a naming habit common in Black American families that turns a familiar first name into a fuller, more distinctive one.
