Paddee is in Origin.

Paddee is a modern, stylistic respelling of Paddy, the traditional Irish pet form of Pádraig (Patrick) and, by extension, sometimes of Patricia. Pádraig descends from Latin Patricius, meaning “nobleman” or “patrician,” a sense still carried by the name today. While Paddy long functioned as a familiar male nickname in Ireland and Britain, Paddee reads as a rare, contemporary, largely unisex given name in English-speaking contexts.

Documented use of Paddy dates to the 18th–19th centuries and spread with the Irish diaspora to Britain, North America, and Australasia; Paddee surfaces mainly from the late 20th century as a distinctive, phonetic choice. Variants include Paddy, Paddie, Paddi, Paddey, and Padi; related formal names are Patrick, Patrice, and Patricia, alongside Irish and Gaelic forms Pádraig, Páraic, and Pàdraig. Note that “Paddy” has also borne ethnic-stereotype baggage in some periods. Name-day/feast association: March 17, Saint Patrick’s Day.
