Where did Evercore get its name?
Just like the title says. Anyone know how the founders of Evercore chose the name?

Apparently it has to do with "everlasting core values"
^ can confirm
Actually fits better than I expected
It's cuz instead of chairs, they make everyone sit on exercise balls to work on their core
yep you’ll be hard pressed to find a better set of abs on WS
It's because the healthcare VP who does intern training there has forEVER been a huge creep to female interns... rotten to the CORE
That's based tho
Real king shit

Lol anyone know the story here?
Bump, we need deets people!
The founders came up with the idea of going independent after getting shitfaced on Everclear, but they couldn't name their firm after grain alcohol and so they changed it to Evercore.
damn students going to try to impress interviewers now with "evercore's name comes from...."
It's actually a very funny story.
Roger Altman, prior to founding Evercore in 1995, was going through some personal issues with his wife and his marriage was teetering on the edge of divorce. The stress of starting a new company was exacerbating the problem.
Anyway, long story short is that he was on the phone arguing with his wife as he and his lawyer were working on setting up his corporation. At one point the topic of divorce came up and allegedly said something to the tune of taking him for half of his belongings. At which point, an angry Altman shouted into the phone "NEVER WHORE".
His lawyer had a lightbulb go off in his head and Altman managed to work things out with his wife to whom he is still married.
That's an awful lot of effort you put into a troll post - I don't know whether to be impressed or feel sad

of course a guy in business school would think that writing a two small paragraphs is "an awful lot of effort"
