The name Pervie is of French origin and means "from the pear tree". It is a variant of the name Percy, which was originally a Norman surname derived from the Middle English word "perci", meaning "to pierce" or "to penetrate". The name Pervie is believed to have been introduced into England by the Normans after the Norman Conquest in 1066. It has not been widely used as a given name, but it has been recorded in various forms throughout history. In some cases, it may have been used as a nickname or diminutive of other names such as Percival or Peter.
"Pervie is a rare but notable name in the United States, with its popularity peaking in the early 20th century. According to U.S. statistics, there were five babies named Pervie in 1918 and another five in 1919, bringing the total number of births for that name during that two-year period to ten."
