Yes Kathryn is correct.  Etchevers is a variation of Etxeberri ("new house")
and the many spellings are a result of the lack (before Euskaltzaindia) of
a standardized spelling for Basque.  Hence, Basques were forced to use
the spelling of the dominant language in their area.  That and a little
imagination.
