In the entire world, Pierie (Pierie 
, Пири 
) is a rare predominantly male, but very infrequently female given name. The first name Pierie is characteristic of Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is a rare boy's name, and South Africa, where it is a very rare dominantly male, but uncommonly feminine name. Likewise, Pierie is the last name as well as the forename.
