Jeddie is an uncommon given name of Hebrew origin, derived from the name Jedediah, which means "beloved of God" or "praised by God". The name Jeddie is a short form of Jedediah and has gained some popularity as a unisex name in recent years. It is often spelled with one 'd' rather than two to differentiate it from the more traditional Jedediah. Despite its Hebrew roots, Jeddie has also been used as an Irish surname, where it was likely derived from the given name Jude or Judas. The name Jeddie can be pronounced as /ˈdʒɛdi/ in English.
"Jeddie is a rare gem of a name, with only five individuals receiving it annually in 1952."
