Meaning & origin
Travor is a rare modern variant of Trevor, itself an Anglicized Welsh name. It first appeared in U.S. records in 1977, a time when creative spellings of established names were gaining popularity. Its peak usage came in 1987, and since then the name has remained remarkably stable in its low frequency of use. Despite never breaking into the top 1000, Travor has been given consistently, mostly likely as a distinctive alternative to the more common Trevor. The name has not been associated with any particular state or region, reflecting its widespread but sparse adoption across the country.
Travor is likely a respelling or variant of Trevor, itself an Anglicized form of the Welsh name Trefor, meaning 'homestead' or 'large settlement'. The name emerged in the United States in the late 20th century, first recorded in 1977. Its peak usage came in 1987, after which it maintained a stable but low frequency of use.
