Treacy

Though it might sound the same, the gender-neutral name Treacy is totally distinct from Tracey and Tracy. While Tracey and Tracy are first names, Treacy is an Irish last name that arises from Ó Treasaigh. In Ireland, many surnames were created based on an individual's familial lineage or notable relatives. Treacy translates to "descendant of Treasach," so it's likely that the first people to carry the moniker were relatives of someone called Treasach. With its definitions of "warlike" and "fierce," Treasach imbues Treacy with a reminder that there is power in being part of a legacy. From their own family or community to the many who've carried their name throughout the centuries, little Treacy will find strength in knowing they're walking the same path as those who came before them.
