Trevish

Origin

The name Trevish appears to be a modern or invented variant, likely derived from the name Trevor, which originates from the Old Welsh name 'Trefor', meaning 'large settlement' or 'homestead'. Trevor itself has been used in English-speaking countries since the 19th century and gained popularity in Australia during the 20th century, especially in English-speaking communities. The suffix '-ish' is a common English diminutive or adjectival ending, sometimes used colloquially or creatively to form new variants or nicknames.

/trə.vɪʃ/ (Austral.as) with stress on the second syllable, 'VISH'. The first syllable 'tre' is pronounced with a schwa sound, similar to 'truh'. Note: 'tre' can vary regionally, sometimes pronounced as 'tree' in Australian English.
