What Evermore Means
Evermore means for all time, an idea of lasting devotion. Parents use it as a word name, so the sense is the plain English one and needs no older language behind it.
Where Evermore Comes From
The word joins ever and more, both Old English in origin, and it has been standard in English since the Middle Ages. Poets and hymn writers have long favored it, and Edgar Allan Poe's raven answers with its negative, nevermore. As a given name it's new: US birth records first list it in 2020, with 7 girls, and show no more than 14 in any year since. That first listing came in the same year as Swift's album, which arrived in December, so the album cannot explain every early bearer.
