The name Kerry was given to 26 girls and 62 boys born in the US in 2015.
It is used as a first name in Ireland. I know a girl named Kerry (perhaps it's spelt with an i) who is named such because her parents are from there. (They now live in Dublin).
What I don't understand is that on this website it's an English name but it comes from an IRISH county. Surely that makes it Irish? I suppose if it was going to be Irish it'd have to be spelt Ciarrai like the county?

In response to Gianna's comment, where the ed said that Kerry isn't used in Ireland, I know quite a few Kerrys here in Northern Ireland. Does that not make it Irish?
