I think that this is a hideous name. I have no idea why this it's somewhat popular.

This is also a female name. My mother has a friend, and her name is Corey.

This can be a girl's name, too. I like this name, but it wouldn't seem right on a 40-year-old.

I love the name Corey, I've given this name to my 2nd son. I live in the UK and everyone here keeps saying that it is a very American sounding name but I always think of it as an Irish name.

Also the name of Alain Delon's character in the Melville film "The Red Circle".

I think this is a cute name, although I do shudder when I hear it because it's my ex-boyfriends name. I know like 4 Corey-s, but 1 of them is a girl and the girl and a boy spell it Cory. (I personally like Corey because I'm so used to it.)

I love this name, I like the weird sound of the R. I have a close friend with this name, it suits him.
