Trevor can be a given name or surname of Welsh origin (as a given name Trefor in Welsh): also a habitational name from any of the numerous places in Wales, in particular the one near Llangollen, from the Welsh tre(f), meaning "homestead", or "settlement" and a form of mawr, meaning "large".

Trevor is also a name of Irish origin. It is a reduced Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Treabhair (descendant of Treabhar), a byname meaning "industrious", "tight", or "prudent".


Trevelyan is a Cornish surname derived from a Cornish place meaning "Village of Elian".

G. M. Trevelyan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

George Macaulay Trevelyan, OM, CBE, FRS, FBA (16 February 1876 [1] – 21 July 1962[2]), was a British historian. Trevelyan was the third son of Sir George Otto Trevelyan, 2nd Baronet, and great-nephew of Thomas Babington Macaulay, whose staunch liberal Whig principles he espoused in accessible works of literate narrative avoiding a consciously dispassionate analysis, that became old-fashioned during his long and productive career.[3] The noted historian E. H. Carr considered Trevelyan to be one of the last historians of the Whig tradition.[4]
