History & Origin

Maverly is a recent American coinage: the Mav- of Maverick (a nineteenth-century word for an unbranded calf, and so for an independent spirit) tucked into the -erly shape of Waverly and Beverly. It has the feel of an old English place name without being one. The route is uncertain, which we note (said 'MAV-ur-lee').

It appears only rarely in the U.S. Rare, modern, and surname-styled.

Did you know? Maverly sounds like a place on a map but is a very new invention, riding the -erly wave of Waverly, Beverly and Kimberly. Its route is uncertain, which we note (said 'MAV-ur-lee').
