Meaning & origin

Kordae is a modern American name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 2006. It has always been rare; in 2025 it ranked 5045, with about 1 in 89,899 boys given the name. Its peak popularity came in 2008, the year it reached its highest rank. The name has been on a rising trajectory since 2017, though from very low numbers. Kordae likely follows the pattern of other invented names using the trendy 'Kor-' prefix and '-ae' suffix, similar to Korbin or Cordae. Because the name has not been recorded in any top states, its use remains geographically scattered.

Kordae is a modern American coinage, likely formed by combining the popular initial 'Kor-' (as in Korbin or Kordell) with the fashionable '-ae' suffix. It first appeared in U.S. birth records in 2006 and has seen sporadic use since.
