Pollick is Scottish in Origin.
Pollick is a rare given name derived chiefly from the Scottish surname associated with the estate of Pollok in Renfrewshire, documented from the 12th century. The place-name likely comes from Brittonic pwll “pool” plus the diminutive -og/oc, or from Scottish Gaelic pollag “little pool,” yielding the sense “from (the) little pool.” Spelled Pollock, Pollok, Pollack, or Pollick in historical records, the surname spread to Ulster and North America with migration.
As a first name, Pollick belongs to the modern surname-as-given-name trend and remains uncommon in the UK, Ireland, Canada, and the US. It can also reflect an Anglicized form of Ashkenazic Pollak/Pollack (from Polish Polak “a Pole”), so some bearers read it ethnonymically. Variants and related forms include Pollock, Pollok, Pollack, Pollak; loosely, Paul/Pol. The implied meaning evokes water and settlement - “dweller by the little pool.”
Pollick is about as rare as a name gets. In all, it appears just 1 time, across 1 country.
