Gearie is Irish in Origin.

Gearie is a rare modern English given name, likely a phonetic respelling of Geary or Gary and related to Gerry. Its linguistic roots point to the Germanic element ger/gar, “spear,” familiar from Gerard (“spear-brave”) and Gerald (“ruler with the spear”). The surname Geary also occurs in Ireland, sometimes from Gaelic Ó Gadhra (O’Gara, “hound”), though as a given name Gearie generally aligns with the Germanic spear tradition.

Usage is sparse: the form surfaces in late 20th-century English-speaking records as a creative alternative during and after the mid-century boom of Gary. Variants and cognates include Geary, Gary, Garry, Gerry, Geri, Gearóid (Irish), Gerard, and Gerald; short forms may be Gerry or Geri. The core meaning evokes martial skill - “spear” or “one armed with the spear” - while the -ie ending lends a friendly, contemporary tone.
