Freddie is a pet form of Frederick, a name built from the Germanic elements friþu, meaning "peace," and rīc, meaning "ruler" — together, "peaceful ruler." The nickname has long since taken on a life of its own, feeling friendly and approachable even without its longer root.

Freddie has an easy, cheerful sound — it suits a pet who's confident but never overbearing, the kind of companion who keeps the peace in a busy household.
