What Does the Name Averie Mean?
Averie is a feminine spelling of Avery, an English name whose established meaning is 'elf ruler' or 'elf power.' Avery comes from an English surname, which in turn comes from a medieval personal name. That personal name has two proposed sources. One is the Norman French Auveray or Auvray, from the Germanic Alberic, formed from alb 'elf' and rīk 'ruler, power.' The other is the Old English Ælfric, formed from ælf 'elf' and rīc 'ruler, power.' Both derivations point to the same general meaning. Averie itself does not have a separate etymology; it is a respelling of Avery with the feminine ending -ie.
Averie Name History & Origins
Averie is a modern feminine spelling. Its parent name, Avery, began as an English surname. That surname comes from a personal name in use after the Norman Conquest. The name was probably introduced by the Normans as Auveray, a form of Alberic, and it may also have merged with the native Old English Ælfric. The surname Avery appears in medieval English records. The male name Avery appears in literature, for example as Avery Arable in E. B. White's Charlotte's Web (1952), but that is a literary use, not the name's origin.
As a given name, Avery was used for men in the English-speaking world in the 19th century. In the late 20th century it also came into use for girls, and feminine spellings such as Averie appeared. The spelling Averie follows the pattern of feminine names ending in -ie, such as Sophie and Rosie. It has no separate root or meaning; it is a respelling of Avery.
