Origin and meaning

Bounty or kindly (Celtic/literary invention via Old English Cerdic)

Cedrick is an English masculine name derived as an alternate spelling of Cedric. In the Philippines, it became widely used during the late 20th century alongside other modern English names, aided by Western media and the famous local broadcast of the anime Cedie: Ang Munting Prinsipe (Little Lord Fauntleroy).

Cedrick is a variant spelling of Cedric, a literary name popularized by Sir Walter Scott in his 1819 novel Ivanhoe, likely based on the historical Old English name Cerdic. It entered Philippine naming traditions through American influence and English media.
