I like the original spelling, and none of its variants. Everly reminds me of a quiet little clearing where the grass is green and the breeze is cool and there's no one around to spoil its beauty... the variants have always come across as performatively obnoxious, the incarnations of one's narcissistic need to stand out. There's nothing wrong with that by itself, but I've never liked how the variants look when read or written, either. Maybe I've just fallen down the rabbit-hole of believing trendy spellings are unpleasant. It's definitely not the worst name a person can have, and I wouldn't judge, but I *much* prefer the original spelling.
