Chaddey is English in Origin.

Chaddey is a modern, elaborated spelling of Chaddy/Chaddie, a pet form of Chad. Chad descends from Old English Ceadda, the name of a 7th‑century Northumbrian monk and bishop venerated as Saint Chad of Mercia. The underlying etymology is uncertain, but many scholars link Ceadda to the Brittonic element cad “battle,” yielding interpretive meanings such as “warrior,” “battle-ready,” or “from the battlefield.”

As a given name, Chad saw strong use in the United States and Britain during the 1960s–80s; Chaddey itself remains very rare and contemporary, sometimes chosen as a unisex twist or affectionate standalone. Variant forms include Chad, Chadd, Chaddy/Chaddie, and the medieval Ceadda; related surnames-turned-given-names include Chadwick and Chadbourne. Though not directly equivalent, names built on the Celtic cad- element (e.g., Cadoc, Cadfael, Cadogan) echo its traditional “battle” association.
