Unknown. Various theories include: * An unrecorded Middle English place name: ** *Shadok from Old English *scēaduc (“little boundary”) or *Scēadāc from scēad (“shade”) + āc (“oak”). ** *Shatok from *Scēatāc from scēat (“corner; nook; bay”) + āc (“oak”). * A variant pronunciation of Chadwick. * From the Middle English personal name Sad(d)oc, ultimately from Hebrew צָדוֹק (Ṣadôq, “righteous”)—the name of a high priest during the rule of David and Solomon and numerous characters in the Old Testament, equivalent to modern Zadok. However, the use of this name was rare in medieval Europe.
