Kerrey is a gender-neutral name of Irish origin. This title derives from the Irish element ciar and means “little dark one” or “blacky.” With a spirit as deep as the midnight sky, Kerrey was popularized by 5th-century Irish saints. It stems from the Gaelic name Ciarán, a name that is shared by one of the Twelve Apostles of Ireland, who was also considered the first Irish-born saint. Kerrey is a fitting choice if you’re looking for something with a touch of nocturnal soul, perfect for a little one born under a dark moon.
