Laddey Origin and Meaning

The name Laddey is a boy's name.

Laddey is a masculine name that likely originated as a variant spelling of Laddie, which itself began as a Scottish term of endearment or nickname. The traditional 'laddie' simply means 'boy' or 'young man' in Scottish dialect. The addition of the 'ey' ending gives it a more name-like quality while preserving its friendly, approachable sound. Laddey remains quite uncommon as a formal given name, maintaining a niche status in English-speaking countries. The name carries connotations of youthfulness and charm, with a somewhat playful quality. Some may choose it as a diminutive for names beginning with 'Lad-' or simply appreciate its distinctive Scottish flavor combined with an unusual spelling.
