Everli is a phonetic spelling variant of Everly, itself derived from the Old English surname Everleigh — combining eofor (wild boar) and leah (woodland clearing or meadow). Originally a place name and surname in England, it migrated to given name use in America, with the spelling Everli reflecting the modern trend of simplified, vowel-forward variations.
The Everly/Everlee/Everli name cluster exploded in popularity in the 2010s, propelled by actress Channing Tatum naming his daughter Everly in 2013. The various spellings all entered the US top 200 in subsequent years.
The Everly Brothers, the influential rock and roll duo of the 1950s-60s, introduced the surname sound to American popular culture. Their close harmonies and hit songs like Wake Up Little Susie and All I Have to Do Is Dream ensured the name had a musical resonance before it became fashionable as a given name.
