A unisex name of Germanic origin, meaning peaceful ruler; from Frederick.
Freddie by the numbers
In 2025, 2,526 babies in England and Wales were named Freddie. In the US, 76 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.
For the size of the two countries, it is given far more often in England and Wales than in the US.
Its American peak was 1,724 babies in 1947, so it is a 1940s name that has since fallen a long way.
