Шаблон:For Шаблон:Infobox Given Name Revised The name Chad is the modernized form of the Old English given name Ceadda. It is also a short form (hypocorism) of Charles, Chadd, Chadrick and Chadwick.[1]

Its popularity suddenly peaked beginning in the mid 1960s, reaching rank 25 in 1972 and 1973. From the mid 1970s, its popularity began a gradual decline, reaching rank 236 in 2000 and rank 667 as of 2013.[2]
