Evrawg is in Origin.

Evrawg is a rare Welsh masculine name linked to medieval Brittonic legend. It corresponds to Welsh Efrawg/Efrog and is related to Latin Eboracum, the Roman name for York. In the Welsh poetic register, the suffix -awg forms adjectives meaning “characterized by,” giving Evrawg the sense “of York” or “Yorkish.” In Welsh chronicles and in retellings after Geoffrey of Monmouth, Evrawg renders Ebraucus, the legendary king said to have founded York, which further anchors the name in mythic-historical narrative rather than everyday medieval naming.

Usage as a personal name has been very uncommon, appearing mainly in genealogies and verse as an epithet or literary name. Modern revival is rare but possible among Welsh-language and heritage-minded families. Variants and related forms include Efrawg (Welsh), Efrog (the place-name York), Ebrauc/Ebraucus (Latinized), and occasionally Evrog. Meaning: “of York; belonging to York.”
