Demarri is of African American origin, derived from the combination of two popular names, DeMar and Mario. It gained popularity in the late 20th century, particularly among the African American community in the United States. The name Demarri is unique yet familiar, consisting of the first syllable "De-" shared by many popular names like Derek and Demetrius, and the second half "-marri" which is reminiscent of Mario or Marco. This blend creates a distinctive name that stands out while still having recognizable elements.
"Demarri experienced its peak popularity in 2013 and 2018 with 10 births each year. However, it seems the name's usage has been declining since then, with only 5 or 6 births recorded annually from 2016 onwards."
