River of the peccaries
Javari is primarily associated with the Javari River, a major tributary of the Amazon that forms the border between Brazil and Peru. The name is derived from indigenous South American languages, likely Tupi, referring to the peccary (a wild pig-like mammal) found in the region. It has gained some usage in the United States as a modern rhythmic invention or a variation of other 'J' names.
About 56 boys were named Javari in 2025.
