Name Meaning

English:

apparently from the name of the month (April), Middle English averil, Old French avrill, Latin aprīlis, perhaps with reference to freshness of temperament, or youth, or possibly to the changeable weather of the month.

perhaps occasionally a habitational name from Haverhill in Suffolk, with loss of initial H-. The placename derives from either Old English hæfera ‘oats’ or hæfer ‘he-goat’ + hyll ‘hill’. Compare Avery .
