The name Corrick is of Irish origin and means "son of Richard." It is a variant spelling of the name Corkerick, which also has Irish roots. The name Richard itself comes from the Old German words "ric" meaning powerful, and "hard" meaning strong or brave.
The name Corrick was likely brought to Ireland by the Anglo-Normans during the 12th century when they invaded the country and settled there. Over time, the name may have evolved through various spellings and pronunciations until it became known as Corrick.
While Corrick is not a particularly common name today, it has been used throughout history in Ireland and other parts of Europe. Some notable figures with the name include Irish poet and playwright William Corrick (1789-1845) and English actor John Corrick (1903-1979).
