Cheshire BMD has the William Eccles birth, sub-district Neston, but doesn't show mother's maiden name.

On the 1851 census William Eccles senior is 48, born Lancashire St Helens.

FamilySearch has a marriage 26 Dec 1830 at St Nicholas, Liverpool, between William Eccles and Hannah Williams. If that's them then there should be a few more children before William jr.

This is the image of the marriage entry on ancestry:
Liverpool marriages
but it doesn't seem to help much. William Eccles of this parish labourer and Hannah Williams of this parish spinster, witnesses Maria Evans Jones and George Parry.

Then there are some baptisms which may or may not be the same family, all with parents William and Hannah (I have included William Eccleston so we can easily see where his baptism fits in the sequence):
Mary Eccles 25 Sep 1831 West Kirby, Cheshire
Elizabeth Eccles 25 Aug 1833 Neston, Cheshire
Ellen Eccles 29 Sep 1833 West Kirby, Cheshire
Mary Eccles 27 Dec 1835 Neston, Cheshire
(William Eccleston 25 Feb 1838 Neston, Cheshire)
Alice Eccles 14 Apr 1838 Hoose, Cheshire
Maria Eccles 4 Jul 1841 Hoose, Cheshire

It looks to me as though there are at least two different couples called William and Hannah here, and it is not clear that the couple who got married in Liverpool in 1830 are the parents of William Eccleston. I think your best bet would be to get his birth certificate and see what the mother's maiden name is.

I definitely agree with that!
