| Meaning | Not yet recorded | A diminutive form, not carrying independent meaning of its own — confirmed as a diminutive of both Edward ('rich guard') and Theodore ('gift of god'), two etymologically unrelated full names, so the meaning depends entirely on which name a given bearer is short for. |
