Feich is Gaelic in Origin.
Feich is an extremely rare given name most plausibly linked to Irish Gaelic. It reads as a streamlined Anglicized form of Féichín (anglicized Fechin/Feehin), a diminutive of Fíach “raven,” thus carrying the meaning “little raven.” Related and variant forms include Féichín, Fechin, Feehin, Fiach, Fiacha, Fiachna, and the broader cousin Fiachra, all tied to the raven motif in early Irish naming. As a given name, Feich is typically masculine but can be used unisex in contemporary settings.
Usage in Ireland owes much to Saint Féichín of Fore (7th century), an influential abbot whose cult sustained medieval popularity and place‑name commemorations. Outside Ireland, Feich also appears as a surname‑derived given name, especially where Germanic surnames like Feich/Feicht/Feucht migrated; in that line it is topographic (“from a damp or boggy place”) rather than avian in sense. Overall, Feich remains distinctive and historically resonant.
Feich doesn't appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. That's typically a sign of a rare name, a regional or traditional one, or a modern coinage. Either way, it's a name very few children share.
