Origin uncertain. It is an Italian name (unexplained), but there is
little evidence of an Italian origin in the U.S. However, it is also
recorded in French-speaking Canada and it may perhaps be a respelling
of French Pécour(t), a habitational name from Pécourt in
Loiret or a nickname from pied ‘foot’ + court
‘short’.
