Beric

Meaning of Beric

Beric, pronounced BEH-rik, is an Old Germanic gem built from bera (“bear”) and ric (“ruler”), conjuring a sense of noble strength. Its medieval English usage lends a knightly, storybook allure—yet it sounds fresh on today’s playground. Just seven boys were named Beric in 2024 (ranked #917 in the U.S.), and it’s hovered in the low 900s over the past decade, making it delightfully rare without slipping into obscurity. Short, crisp, and packed with character, Beric turns heads and sparks conversation whether you’re drawn to its bear-like power, its subtle nod to epic fantasy, or simply its confident simplicity. For families seeking a warm, steadfast choice, Beric stands ready to forge its own legend.
