haviern.

/ˈheɪvjə/
Forms: Also 1600s–1800s haver, 1700s–1800s havior, haviour, 1800s heavier.
Etymology: Etymology uncertain: the earliest recorded form is haver, which Pegge took as = halver, < half, comparing Latin semimas ‘castrated’. The forms in -ier, -iour, would in this case be corruptions: compare saviour, haviour.
A gelded fallow deer. Also attributive.
