That was a waste of my time. My name is Corey and all it said was that it's derived from the Old Norse name Kori. I looked up Kori and it said it's the feminine form of wait for it...Corey. Oh well.
This name is illegitimate. This means that the origin and meaning cannot be verified, and that this name was most likely either pulled out of someone's behind or respelled with a reckless disregard for history, aesthetics, or phonics. This name might also be a random word or surname. Use with caution.
Goddamn, when did Simon Cowell go into etymological baby naming? :cry:

Oh well, you know, your name reminds me of the word "aetherial" (if I got the spelling right).

heck yeah king James ftw :) English form of the Late Latin name Iacomus which was derived from Ιακωβος (Iakobos), the New Testament Greek form of the Hebrew name יַעֲקֹב (Ya'aqov) (see JACOB). This was the name of two apostles in the New Testament. The first was Saint James the Greater, the apostle John's brother, who was beheaded under Herod Agrippa in the Book of Acts. The second was James the Lesser, son of Alphaeus. Another James (known as James the Just) is also mentioned in the Bible as being the brother of Jesus. Since the 13th century this form of the name has been used in England, though it became more common in Scotland, where it was borne by several kings. In the 16th century the Scottish king James VI inherited the English throne, becoming the first ruler of all Britain, and the name grew much more popular. Famous bearers include the explorer Captain James Cook (1728-1779), the inventor of the steam engine James Watt (1736-1819), and the novelist and poet James Joyce (1882-1941). This name has also been borne by six American presidents. A notable fictional bearer is the British spy James Bond, created by author Ian Fleming.

As an English name, Matthew has been in use since the Middle Ages.
