Meaning and background
The story behind Peachy
Peachy is documented as an English Peachey variant and as a Peachey-related form of Swiss German origin. The dictionary notes that the English surname is rare in Britain. Those are historical surname relationships, separate from the modern English compliment or fruit association. A dog owner may intend either everyday image, but a family-name account should preserve the two documented routes instead of treating the spelling as its own complete etymology.
