Cortney
Cortney means "Old French/Norman, domain of Curtius" and comes from Old French, giving it real etymological depth as a girl's name. It had its heyday in the 1980s and has mostly fallen out of use since. Today, it is on the rarer side without being unusual in the registry. The registry counts around 20,001 U.S. births under this name going back to 1900.
