Meaning & origin
Evrett is a modern spelling of Everett, entering U.S. birth records in 1997. The name peaked in popularity in 2015, after which its usage has gradually declined. In 2025 it ranked 7,194, with roughly 1 in 155,280 boys receiving the name. Evrett represents a contemporary trend of respelling established names with a streamlined look, dropping a 't' and swapping an 'o' for an 'e'. Despite its low rank, it retains a familiar sound and fits well with other modern classics. Its trajectory has been falling since 2014, suggesting it may become even rarer in the coming years.
Evrett is a modern respelling of Everett, which itself derives from the English surname Everett, originally from the Old English name Eoforheard, composed of eofor "wild boar" and heard "brave, hardy." The spelling with a single 't' and 'e' emerged in the late 20th century as a creative variation. Evrett has been used steadily since the 1990s, primarily in the United States.
