Chaddie is in Origin.

Chaddie is an English pet-form of Chad (also Chadd) and, less often, of the surname-derived given name Chadwick. Chad goes back to the Old English personal name Ceadda, borne by a 7th-century bishop-saint of Mercia; the exact etymology is uncertain, though it’s sometimes linked to Brittonic/Welsh cad "battle." As a nickname ending in -ie, Chaddie follows the long British and American tradition of cozy diminutives used in family and informal settings.

Usage is rare as an independent given name, but the form appears in late 19th to early 20th century records and resurfaces today as a playful, retro choice. Variants and related forms include Chad, Chadd, Chaddy/Chaddie (spelling variants), Chadwick, Chadrick, and the medieval Ceadda. Meaning tracks its root: "meaning unknown; possibly battle," or, when read as short for Chadwick, "Ceadda's farm/settlement" (Old English wic). Predominantly masculine, though occasionally adopted as unisex.
