Jedryc is in Origin.

Jedryc is a modern Slavic-Polish given name shaped from the Jędr- family of forms that stem from Andrzej, the Polish equivalent of Andrew (from Greek Andreas, “man; manly, brave”). Polish diminutives like Jędrek and bynames such as Jędrych or Jędrycz generated surnames in the 16th–18th centuries; Jedryc likely represents an Anglicized, diacritic-free respelling of these materials now repurposed as a given name. Its use remains rare, appearing in diaspora communities and contemporary name lists seeking Slavic texture with a simple, punchy sound.

Close variants and cognates include Jedryk, Jedrik, Jędryk, Jędrycz, Jędrych, Jędrzej, and Andrzej, alongside international forms Andrew, Andreas, Andrei, and Andriy. Nicknames Jed or Rick emerge naturally. The core meaning traces back through Andrew to “manly, courageous,” while the Slavic suffixal feel (-yk/-yc) adds a traditional patronymic flavor without changing the underlying sense.
