Bekky is in Origin.

Bekky is a contemporary respelling of Becky, the familiar diminutive of Rebecca. Rebecca ultimately derives from the Hebrew name Rivqah (Rivkah/Rivka), often interpreted from a root meaning “to tie” or “bind,” yielding senses such as “bound,” “joined,” or “captivating.” The name entered European languages through biblical tradition; Rebecca, the wife of Isaac in Genesis, kept the name in liturgical use, and it later flourished in English during the Puritan era and beyond.

As a nickname-form, Becky became widespread in the mid-20th century, while Bekky remains a rarer, stylistic twist favored in modern English-speaking contexts. It shares space with variants such as Becki, Beckie, Bekkie, Bec, Becca, and Bex; formal counterparts include Rebecca, Rebekah (biblical English), Rebeca (Spanish/Portuguese), Rébecca (French), Rebekka (German/Scandinavian), and Rivka (Hebrew/Yiddish). Parents choosing Bekky often like the brisk, friendly sound and the balanced double-k spelling while retaining Rebecca’s enduring, faith-inflected meaning.
