Chadney, of Germanic origin, is a unique and distinctive given name. Derived from the Old German elements 'cad' meaning 'battle' and '-man', it signifies 'warrior'. This name has been relatively uncommon in recent years, making it an appealing choice for parents seeking an uncommon yet meaningful name for their child.
Chadney was quite popular among parents during the late 70s and early 80s, with a noticeable spike in popularity from 1976 to 1985. However, it seems the name's appeal waned slightly by 1988, as the number of births dropped back down to 6 that year. In total, Chadney was given to 43 newborns during these years.
