About the name Cedd

Cedd was a Northumbrian missionary bishop who evangelized Essex and founded the tiny, still-standing chapel at Bradwell-on-Sea. About as short and rare as an authentic name gets.

Determined and plainspoken, thriving in difficult missions.

Fun fact

The chapel he built at Bradwell-on-Sea around 660 AD is still standing and in use today.
