Meaning and history
Xavior is a modern English spelling variant of Xavier. Xavier derives from the Basque place name Etxeberria or Xabier, meaning “new house.” Saint Francis Xavier, a sixteenth-century Jesuit missionary, made the name internationally prominent. The spelling with -ior is a phonetic or stylistic alteration and does not create a separate etymology. Notable exact-spelling bearers are limited; claims of unrelated Arabic or Latin meanings are not established.
