Thaddeus is a strong handsome name. Seems more modern than it is. I love the nickname Teddy and Taz for it.

I'm madly in love with this name and, barring absolute contempt from my husband, am naming my first son Thaddeus, with the nickname Tadd. I think it's a very strong, masculine name that also doesn't prohibit fun.

Thaddeus (or Thaddäus) is Squidward's German name in Spongebob Squarepants.
It fits him to the Tee.

Thaddeus is Dr. Venture's first name on the Adult Swim show 'The Venture Bros.' This is a very handsome and mature name. Thad, or Tad, are nice nicknames.
