I used to really dislike made up names. I like the history, origin, and meanings. However, there are two names that I like but not enough on their own. One being [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] (middle name ok, not for a first name) and [name_u]Avery[/name_u] (has gotten too popular and I’m not crazy about its meaning). So I made up the name Maevery.
It’s not like it is completely from my imagination, but a combo of two names. [name_m]Hence[/name_m], it could have the meaning of the two names since it is derived from them?
My friend also pointed out that “all names/words are made up from somewhere.”
What do you think? Can Maevery pass as a name? While its obviously not common, I don’t find it too difficult to pronounce or odd by looking at it/hearing it.
A commenter used it from my signature the other day and it stuck out to me that someone liked it and used it as an example, so I thought I would gather some more opinions.
Hmm. I have to say I’m not a fan because it seems very trendy. It’s the -very ending that’s doing it. It’s no [name_f]Brynlee[/name_f], but that is the category I’d put it in.
I don’t have too much of an opinion on it other than I had seen it on your signature before and couldn’t decide how to pronounce it. It looked like Ma-every to me at the time.
So I googled Maevery, and I found a restaurant called Maevery public house. The name isn’t completely made up. You could also look into the name Mavery. I don’t see a problem with the name.
I don’t love it, but I think it’s better than a lot of other made-up names doing the rounds at the moment… I still think [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] on it’s own would be stunning though.
It’s not my style but it’s not horrible either. I prefer the Mavery spelling. ‘[name_f]Every[/name_f]’ really stands out to me in Maevery which could lead to more pronouciation issues.
I prefer the Mavery spelling too, like [name_u]Avery[/name_u] but with an “M.” I personally think it makes more sense from a pronunciation standpoint. And I do like the sound of it.
In 2015, 9 girls were born in the US with the name Mavery, and 9 were born in 2014 as well. 7 in 2013. 5 in 2012. 8 in 2011. And 5 more in 2009. So 43 total girls in the US given the name Mavery since 2009. I am able to find Mavery listed on other baby naming sites.
