Mavrick is in Origin.

Mavrick is a modern English given name, a streamlined variant of Maverick. It ultimately comes from the American surname of Samuel A. Maverick (1803–1870), a Texas rancher and politician whose unbranded cattle made his name synonymous with independence. The word “maverick” entered American English for an “unbranded calf” and soon broadened to mean an independent-minded, nonconformist person - meanings carried into the given name. Pronounced MAV-rik, Mavrick preserves the sound while offering a distinctive spelling.

As a first name, it saw little use before the late 20th century, rising in North America alongside bold, virtue-tinged word-names and pop-culture boosts such as Top Gun’s call sign “Maverick.” Mavrick remains rarer than the standard spelling but is easily recognized. Common variants include Maverick, Maverik, Maveric, Mavrik, and Mavric; short forms Mav and Rick are used. The name signals individuality, adventurous spirit, and self-direction.
