Beverly
Beverly is a feminine given name of English origin. It is derived from the Old English words 'befer' meaning 'beaver' and 'leah' meaning 'meadow' or 'clearing'.
The name Beverly is believed to have originated as a place name for a town in Yorkshire, England, which was likely named for its location near a beaver stream or beaver meadow.
The name became popular in the United States and other English-speaking countries in the 20th century, particularly after the character Beverly Hills in the popular television series 'The Beverly Hillbillies'.
Although originally an English name, Beverly has since been adopted by various cultures and is now used worldwide.
