Usage: English

Meanings: Derived from the obsolete Eoforheard (strong as a wild boar), a compound name composed of the elements eofor (wild boar) and heard (hearty, strong, brave). Eoforheard had a cognate in the Old High German Eburhart, which evolved into the Modern German Eberhard and the French Everard. Thus, it is uncertain whether Everard was a natural evolution of Eoforheard, or whether Eoforheard was abandoned in favor of Everard at the time of the Conquest. (EV-EH-RARD)
