Severt is an uncommon and distinctive male given name of Slavic origin, particularly popular among Russian speakers. The name is derived from the Old Slavonic word 'severy' meaning 'sword.' Throughout history, it has been used sparingly, contributing to its rarity today. It's often associated with strong, courageous individuals, reflecting the power and sharpness conveyed by its etymology.
The name Severt appears to have been moderately popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with a notable spike in popularity between 1913 and 1924. However, it is important to note that there were no recorded births with this name for quite some time after 1884, until it re-emerged in 1913. Overall, the name Severt was given to a total of 53 newborns across these years.
