Huddie is an adorable boy's name that carries an air of mystery with its uncertain origins. Perhaps a nickname for Hugh or Huddy, Huddie may be of English or Irish ancestry. It is likely derived from either the surname Hudson or Ó hUada. In Middle English, it was often common to add '-y' to the end of a surname to form a new name meaning "son of." In this case, Huddie may mean "son of Hudson," "son of Hugh," or "descendant of Uada." We're confident that Huddie William Ledbetter, AKA Lead Belly, impressed many with his American folk and blues performances, adding at least one valuable name to Huddie's reputation!
