History & Origin

Trevia most plausibly grew out of Trevor, the Welsh name meaning 'large settlement,' reshaped with a feminine -ia ending. The exact path is uncertain, which we note; it appears sparingly in American records across several decades.

Trevia was never common, given to only about twenty girls a year at its peak around 1970, and it had faded from use by the mid-1990s. It reads today as a distinctly vintage, uncommon choice.

Did you know? Trevia's likely root, Trevor, comes from Welsh words for 'large settlement'; giving it a girl's -ia ending follows the same pattern that turned Julian into Julia.
