Ivery: A rare and unique given name of American origin, derived from the Old French word 'ivre,' meaning 'to drink.' It was originally used as a nickname for someone who enjoyed drinking alcoholic beverages, but over time it has evolved into a unisex given name.
The name Ivery experienced fluctuations in popularity over the past century, with no particular peak or consistent trend. The highest number of births recorded in a single year was 19 births each in 1919 and 1952. However, there were many years where fewer than 5 births were recorded, including recent years such as 2005 to 2016, suggesting that Ivery is now quite rare as a given name.
