History & Origin

Beverlie is an -ie spelling of Beverly, a name from an Old English place meaning 'beaver stream'. It appeared as Beverly was climbing toward its mid-century popularity, one of several softer respellings of that stylish name.

It stayed rare in this form, given to only about fifteen girls a year at its 1927 peak, and it left the records by the mid-1960s. A girl with this spelling then would be a great-grandmother today, while the standard Beverly became a genuine mid-century favorite.

Did you know? Beverly, the name behind this spelling, jumped from surname to fashionable girls' name in the early twentieth century, helped along by novels and by Beverly Hills.
