Aefre is English in Origin.

Aefre is an Old English word‑name drawn from æfre, the source of modern ever, carrying the sense of always or forever. It traces to Proto‑Germanic roots related to ideas of duration and age, ultimately connected to the Indo‑European root that also yields Latin aevum (age, eternity). In Old English, æfre appears frequently in poetry and chronicles as an adverb of constancy, lending the name a meaning of enduring commitment and timelessness.

As a given name, Aefre is a modern revival rather than a form attested in Anglo‑Saxon personal records. It appeals in contemporary English‑speaking contexts for its lean, lyrical sound and virtue‑style meaning, fitting alongside word‑names. Spelling variants include Æfre (with the historic ash) and the ASCII Aefre; thematically related choices are Ever and, more distantly, Everly. Usage is rare and largely unisex, suiting parents drawn to medieval textures and concise, evocative meanings.
