[Surname] Re: Meaning of surname "Peaks?"
Peak and Peake are English surnames. They are said to denote someone whose home was near a peak, or hill. I've also read that they identified someone from the Peak District of Derbyshire which is hilly country. If Peaks is of English origin it could be a variation.
