Friddson is Germanic, Scandinavian in Origin.

Friddson is a modern Scandinavian-style given name built from the patronymic -son (“son of”) plus the Germanic root frid-, meaning peace or protection. That element appears in Old Norse and Old High German names like Frida, Fridrik, and Siegfried, where frid/fridu signifies harmony and safety; in Nordic usage it can also suggest fair or beloved. The sense is therefore “son of Frid” or “son of peace.”

Used chiefly as a surname in the past, the name occurs as Fridson or Fridsson in Sweden and Norway and as Friedson in German and Yiddish traditions. As a first name, Friddson fits the recent English-language fashion for surname-forename crossovers and distinctive consonant doubling. Related forms include Fridson, Fridsson, Friedson, Fredson, and the Icelandic-style Friðson.
