Baptismal names in Latin

[Greenvale]

Would anyone know if the name Thomas would be recorded as Thaddeus in Irish Catholic parish registers?

[heywood]

I doubt it. Was the child known as Thomas later?
Have you got a link to the baptism?

[heywood]

The Irish for Timothy is Tadgh - perhaps Thaddeus was used as the Latin version.

Thomas Cunningham born in Roscommon 1823. (UK census 1871)
There is a baptism record for a Thaddeus Cunningham in Boyle, Roscommon dated 23/07/1823.
Not knowing his exact place of birth I was wondering if this could be the same person

Thomas when it is latinised in Ireland, that I have seen is Tomas or Thoma. Thaddeus/Thady are some times used to mean Timothy. 

I would sense that Thoma/Tomas/Thaddeus/Timothy would all be a bit unusual in England and he may have used Thomas to make it simpler.

The Record Interpreter gives Thadeus as the Latin equivalent of Thady.

[dublin1850]

Thaddeus is for Tadgh, often anglicised as Timothy, Teague or Thady.

[shanreagh]

Thaddeus is for Tadgh, often anglicised as Timothy, Teague or Thady.

That is my understanding too.....

Thanks to everyone for that. Looks like they're not the same person.
