Besides Shad, another nickname is Drach (pronounce Drack). Think Dracula.

My grandfather's middle name was Shadrach. His ancestors were also from South Wales. Never heard of anyone with that name.

There is a concentration of people in South Wales with the surname Shadrach. I believe they are related. There was a well-known Welsh minister, teacher and author Azariah Shadrach, 1774-1844.

This is one of my favorite names ever! Partly because of the shortened version, Shad. Also I like the most famous namesake. :)

Shadrach Dingle is the name of a character in the British soap, Emmerdale. A lot of the Dingles have Biblical names, such as Zack, Cain and Debbie (Deborah) but they aren't particularly religious!

I'm very fond of this name. It can be shortened to Shad as a nickname. A fairly prominent character in Irene Hunt's Civil War story Across Five Aprils was Shadrach Yale.
