Origin: French

Meaning: Horseman; Knight

Chevy, a French boy's name, is a diminutive of Chevalier and means "horseman" or "knight." The name Chevy might call to mind vintage trucks and a certain SNL comedian, but if you want to make it even cooler, think of it as a cowboy name. Encourage baby Chevy to embrace his independence and not be afraid to strike out alone, but balance the recklessness of classic cowboys with the chivalry and courage of an old-fashioned knight.
