Corrie (surname)
Corrie is a unisex surname in the English language. The name has several different etymological origins. The name is found in numbers in the north of Ireland. The surname has been borne by a noted Scottish family, that was originally seated in what is today the civil parish of Hutton and Corrie. Etymology

In some cases the surname originated as a habitational name, derived from several different locations named Corrie. For example, the surnames are derived from the places so-named on the Isle of Arran, and in Dumfries (both of which are located in Scotland). The place names are derived from the Gaelic coire, meaning "cauldron", which was used in place names to describe a circular valley on the side of a mountain. Another origin of the surname is from a variation of the surnames Corry and McCorry, which are common in the north of Ireland. These particular surnames are derived from the Irish Mac Gothraidh, meaning "son of Gothradh". Distribution
In Ireland, the surname is rare, although it is found in numbers in Belfast and Derry. The surname, when found in Ireland, can originate as either the northern Irish patronym, or from any of the Scottish toponyms. Families
