Mavrick

Mavrick is a variant spelling of the name Maverick, which is an English surname that has become a popular given name in recent decades.

The name Maverick originated from the surname of Samuel A. Maverick, a 19th-century Texas rancher who refused to brand his cattle. As a result, unbranded calves became known as 'mavericks.' The name thus came to mean 'nonconformist' or 'independent.'

As a given name, Mavrick (or Maverick) is often chosen for its connotations of individuality, unconventionality, and freedom. It has a bold, strong, and adventurous feel to it.

While not a traditional name, Mavrick has become increasingly popular in recent years, perhaps reflecting a desire for children to grow up with a sense of independence and a willingness to blaze their own trail.
