Beechy is English in Origin.

Rooted in English nature vocabulary, Beechy functions as a diminutive or nickname-turned-given-name derived from beech, the tree name (Old English bece/bēce). As a forename it is rare, more commonly arising from surnames formed by residence near beech trees, such as Beecher (“dweller by the beech”) and Beecham (“beech homestead”). The spelling aligns it with the beech tree rather than the seashore. Occasional use as a first name appears in Britain and North America from the 19th century onward, often as a friendly short form for Beecher or Beecham.

Meaning centers on “beech tree” and, by cultural association, learning and letters - the Germanic link between beech and book (e.g., German Buche/Buch) has long symbolized knowledge. Variants and related forms include Beechie, Beachy (also a Swiss-German–derived surname in Anabaptist communities), Beecher, and Beecham. Beechy reads as warmly unisex with a vintage, botanical feel.
