The puckett Surname
puckett Name Meaning and History
English (Dorset): of uncertain origin; perhaps a variant of
Pocket(t), from a diminutive of Anglo-Norman French
poque ‘small pouch’, hence a metonymic occupational name for a
maker of purses and pouches or a nickname. Alternatively it could be
from a diminutive of Middle English pouk(e) ‘evil spirit’,
‘puck’, ‘goblin’.
