Meaning and background
The story behind Ever
Ever is an English word associated with time, including senses of always and at any time. It continues Old English æfre, but the earlier formation is uncertain. An owner may like its suggestion of lasting affection, while that sentiment should remain a personal interpretation rather than an exact translation of a traditional name. The short spelling gives a complete-looking word without a decorative ending. Consider how it sounds in ordinary phrases, where people may initially hear the adverb instead of a dog's name.
- Origin
