Meaning & origin
Becci is a rare spelling variant of Becky, itself a well-known diminutive of Rebecca. The name first appeared in U.S. records in 1955, though it never entered the top 1000. Its peak year was 1967, after which usage declined sharply. As of 2025, the name remains stable but exceedingly uncommon, with fewer than 5 births per year if any. Most bearers were born in the 1960s, with the name likely seen as a trendy alternative to the more traditional Becky. Because Becci is a modern, invented spelling, it lacks deep historical roots but carries the same biblical heritage as Rebecca.
Becci is a diminutive of Rebecca, a name from the Hebrew Rivqah. In the Bible, Rebecca was the wife of Isaac and mother of Jacob and Esau. The name has been used in English since the Protestant Reformation, and Becci is a modern spelling variant of the traditional nickname Becky.
