The baby name Becki is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈbɛki/ (BEK-ee).
Becki is Hebrew in Origin.
Becki is an English diminutive of Rebecca and Becky, ultimately from Hebrew Rivqah, rendered Rebekah in the Bible. The root likely means “to tie” or “to bind,” interpreted in given-name use as “captivating” or “ensnaring.” Through the Septuagint and Vulgate, the name spread across Europe, anchored by the biblical matriarch Rebekah, wife of Isaac and mother of Esau and Jacob.
Becki as a spelling reflects a modern, mid–late 20th-century preference for -i endings (compare Toni, Joni), and it appears most in the UK and the US. While often a familiar form for Rebecca, it is sometimes bestowed independently. Related forms include Becky, Beckie, Beki; short forms Becca and Bex; and the formal Rebecca/Rebekah. International variants include Rivka (Hebrew), Rebeca (Spanish/Portuguese), Rébecca (French), and Rebekka (German/Scandinavian).
