Corris Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
For MacKoris(h or MacOris(h, q.v.
Contracted from MacFeorais, ‘Pierce's Son', and Corris, from MacOrish, another form of MacFeorais. The powerful Anglo- Norman family of Bermingham, Barons of Athenry, took the name of MacFeorais or MacOrish from an ancestor Pierce, Pieras, or Feoras, the son of Meyler Bermingham.
‘Andrew MacFeorais', a.d. 1331.
It is remarkable that in the parishes where Kerruish is found, Corris is not. The former is almost confined to Maughold, while the latter is very common in German. The distich ‘Christian, Callow, and Kerruish, All the rest are refuse!' is still to be heard in Maughold, and is not so sweeping a condemnation as might be supposed, as 'all the rest' are not numerous.
Kerruish, though it appears in 1643, is not the usual form till the eighteenth century; till then Kerrish is more common.
