Cade Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
The Anglo-Saxon pers. name Cada: v. under Cadd.
William Cade.—Hundred Rolls Richard Cabel.—Hundred Rolls
See illustrations of this name in English Surn. i. 112. 202. Notwithstanding Shakspeare's allusion, it may be doubted whether the name is derived from cade, a barrel. Several Cades are mentioned in H.R. without prefix.
An old word for a barrel or cask; probably taken from a sign at an ale—house or tavern—"John at the Cade."' Shakspeare uses Cade in this sense:
"Cade.—We, John Cade, so termed of our supposed father.
Dick.—Or rather of stealing a cade of herrings!"
Hen. VI., Act IV., Sc. II.
Arnulf Cades, 1184, paid a fine in Normaudy for disseisin (Mag. Rot. Scac.); and occurs again, 1198 (Ib.). Eustace Cade was of Lincolnshire, 1189 (Rot. Pip.). Various families of the name formerly bore arms in England (Robson).
