What Does the Name Fredderick Mean?
Fredderick is a spelling variant of Frederick, an English form of the Germanic name Friedrich, and its established meaning is "peaceful ruler." The name derives from Old High German fridu, "peace," and rihhi, "power," "dominion," or "ruler"; the compound is literally "peace-ruler" and is conventionally translated "peaceful ruler." The doubled d in Fredderick is an orthographic variation and does not indicate a separate root or a different meaning.
Fredderick Name History & Origins
The Germanic name is represented in Old High German as Fridurih, which became Middle High German Friedrich and passed into English as Frederick. It was borne by German monarchs and Holy Roman Emperors, including Frederick I Barbarossa in the twelfth century and Frederick II in the thirteenth, and by Saint Frederick of Utrecht, a ninth-century bishop. English uses Frederick as the standard form, with Frederic and Fredrick as alternatives; Fredderick adds a second d to the first syllable. That doubled consonant is a spelling variation rather than a distinct historical name, so Fredderick has no separate line of development apart from Frederick.
