History & Origin

Jakorey is a coinage joining the Ja- opening to Korey or Corey, an Irish surname name from O Comhraidhe. The result belongs to the productive Ja- family that flourished in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.

It stayed rare, given to only about fifteen boys a year at its peak around 2007 and never spreading widely. A boy named Jakorey then is a teenager or young adult today.
