Pedrick is in Origin.

Pedrick is a Cornish–Welsh form ultimately derived from Latin Petrus (“rock, stone”), by way of Welsh Pedr and Cornish Peder/Pedrek. The final -ick reflects a diminutive or anglicized ending, yielding the pronunciation PED-rik and the sense “little Peter” or simply “rock.” Devotion to the early medieval Celtic saint Petroc (Welsh Pedrog, Cornish Petroc) helped entrench related forms across Cornwall and the West Country.

As a hereditary surname, Pedrick and Pederick are well recorded in Cornwall and Devon from the 16th century, with occasional use as a given name in Britain and later in North America during the 19th–20th centuries. Variant spellings include Pedric, Pederick, Pederic, and archaic Pedricke; cognates and close relatives are Pedr, Petroc, Piers/Pierce, and Peter. Though uncommon today, Pedrick blends Celtic heritage with a sturdy meaning, appealing to families seeking a distinctive yet historically grounded alternative to Peter.
