Meaning & origin

Everrett is a spelling variant of Everett that first appeared in U.S. records in 1915, about three decades after the standard form gained popularity. The name reached its peak usage in 1919, ranking highest that year, but then declined through much of the 20th century. Since 2013, however, Everrett has been on a rising trajectory, reflecting a broader trend of reviving older, surname-style names. In 2025, it ranked 6803 with a frequency of 1 in 142340 births. While not among the most common choices, its recent climb suggests a modest revival. The name has no dominant U.S. state concentration, indicating broad but sparse use.

Everrett is a double-consonant variation of Everett, which derives from an English surname. The surname itself originated from the Old English given name Eoforheard, composed of the elements 'eofor' (boar) and 'heard' (brave, hardy). The name was introduced into use as a given name in the 19th century, and variant spellings like Everrett emerged in the early 20th century.
