Everett is English in Origin.
Everett is an English given name derived from a medieval surname that traces back to the Norman personal name Everard, ultimately from Old High German Eberhard (eber "wild boar" + hard "brave, hardy"). The usual sense is "brave as a wild boar" or "strong boar." Related forms include Everard (English), Evert (Dutch/Scandinavian), and Eberhard (German); modern spellings Everet and Everette also occur. Common nicknames are Ev, Ever, Rett, and Rhett.
Brought to England by the Normans, the name survived chiefly as a surname before reappearing as a given name in the 19th century, particularly in Britain and the United States. It rose in American use around 1900, waned mid-century, and has enjoyed a notable revival since the 2000s, aligning with concise, -ett ending names. Everett today reads tailored and traditional, and is occasionally used for girls.
