What does the name 
Averi mean?

The name Averi was created as a special feminine variant of the unisex name Avery. It was originally an English surname, influenced by the French pronounciation of Germanic names like Alfred or Alberich.

Averi -
keeping with the times

Averi is a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Then, unexpectedly, Averi cried out for attention, reaching its peak in popularity at #630 in our SmartGenius statistics in the year 2015. People over 50 probably didn't have classmates named Averi, for there were many years in which not a single parent chose this first name for their daughter. Although it also has never been in the top 100 of most popular first names, Averi seems to have been in vogue for a while, especially since the beginning of the new millennium.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Averi was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.

Averi -
special, but at home in many states

You may not know anyone named Averi, but there’s a good chance you live in the same state as someone with that name. In fact, 39 states are home to women and girls named Averi. (To be fair, a given name is only included in a state’s official statistics if there are at least five people with that name living in that state – so it’s entirely possible that there are still a few women and girls named Averi living in one state or another. If your name is Averi and you live outside of the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can refine our statistics even further). And while the first name is present in many states, it is still not one of the popular ones.

Averi has 5 letters 
and begins with an A

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter A is the most popular first letter for girls’ names. 11.8% of all common girls’ names in the US start with this letter. The second most common first letter in girls' names is S.

With five letters, the name Averi is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.

That means that if 11.8% of all girls' names start with an A, this initial letter occurs over three times as often as all other letters on average. And, by the way, of all the girls' names that begin with the letter A, the name Ashley is the most common.
