Our story of Trevion
Ours, offered as ours. Tref is one of the workhorse words of Welsh — it opens hundreds of place names, from Trefor to Tregaron to Tremadog, and it means a settlement or a homestead. Trevor came from it, then Trev came off Trevor, and Trevion added the ending that Davion and Kavion made available. Four steps from a Welsh farm to an American birth certificate, each one ordinary, and the word at the far end still in daily use.

The Mervyn test
Every popular name lives one long story — a climb, a peak, a slow settling back. Trevion's later chapters haven't been written yet, so we borrowed them: Mervyn climbed just as high around 1937, and its whole arc is on record. Line the two peaks up, and Mervyn's path sketches the road Trevion is walking now.
