Tedmund Origin and Meaning

The name Tedmund is a boy's name.

Tedmund is a masculine name combining elements of two distinct names. It appears to be a variation that blends 'Ted' (a diminutive of Theodore or Edward) with the ending of Edmund. Theodore derives from Greek elements meaning 'gift of god,' while Edmund comes from Old English meaning 'prosperity' and 'protector.' This hybrid creation maintains the friendly accessibility of Ted while adding the historical gravitas of Edmund. Tedmund is extremely rare, never having achieved widespread usage in any English-speaking country. The name carries a distinguished yet approachable quality, potentially appealing to parents seeking a name with traditional roots but a distinctive, uncommon presentation.
