That is interesting, so what would the Irish of Rodolphus be?  Or for that matter English.

Thank you for the clarification, I thought Rodrick sounded to much non Celtic, but then again so does Roldophus, which still puzzels me. Its origin apears Roman, and shows up in Dutch and English names, and one Irish Viscont. And Yet I found it on a number of Irish baptismal records during the 1860 & 70's.  i know there was an Irish Bishop of Armagh with that name as well.  Or maybe it to was anglicized.  I think I would prefer Rory over Rody.
Thanks again.

I have never seen Roderick on any official documents, is this a legitimate name or could Roderick be short for something else?  I think we may need to turn to the Irish for translation.

Thanks,

Ned

Roady is a nickname for Rodolphus, as indicated on baptismal records from Ireland for relatives of mine who went by Roger/Roady/Rody.

Thanks,  but do you know what Townland?  According to baptismal records Roady or Rody or Roadi is abbreviated of Roldophus.  It looks like a Latin name, but I believe it to be Celtic.  It translate in our family to Roger.

If you receive this jann,  I had a suspicion that was you.
