Inverbervie (), also known simply as Bervie, is a small town on the north-east coast of Scotland, south of Stonehaven, in the Mearns.
== Etymology == The name comes from Gaelic and means "mouth of Bervie Water". Historical forms, such as Haberberui, recorded in 1290, show that the Gaelic element inbhir, meaning "river mouth", has succeeded the original Brittonic element aber, with the same meaning (cf. Welsh aber). Alternative names existed for the community in earlier part of the 1200s. There was Inuirberuyn used 1204-1214, Inuerberuyn 1232-1237, Inirbervyn 1266, and Inuerberuy 1287. The name of the Bervie Water might derive its name from the Old Irish language and the word berbaim meaning 'I boil', or from Pictish analog of the root, compare Welsh berw 'boiled, boiling'. However, this may be a translation or an adaptation of an earlier pre-Celtic name.
