I have a distant relative who appears in the 1861 Cesus wth the first name of Coy

Is this an abbrevation of another name or a name (unheard of to me) in its own right?

Thank you

Could it be a surname used as a first name?

Don't feel that bad about it, I had someone contact me once asking if I could help her find out about a family lviing with one of her direct ancestors, she said that the census showed their surname as 'Do'
