About Severe

As such, it may link to the "very demure" trend that year, though the content creator may have also chosen it as a nod to brother's name, Seven.

Alternatively, Severe is a spelling variation of Sévère (SEH-VEHR), a French form of Severus, a Latin name meaning "stern, strict".

Pronounced suh-VEER.
