Storie is a modern Scottish name, likely a variant of the surname and given name Story, which itself derives from the Old Norse personal name Stóri or the Old English stōr, meaning "large" or "great," or possibly an occupational name for a historian or storyteller. The name has gained quiet attention in Scotland in recent years, particularly in the Borders region. One notable bearer is Storie, a 6th-century Scottish saint associated with the island of Lismore, though details of his life are scant. The name also shares a root with the word "storey," as in a floor of a building, and with "story" meaning a tale. While no major places bear the name directly, the surname Story is found in place names across Scotland, such as Storywood in Aberdeenshire.
