Cedric (French spelling: ''Cédric'') is a masculine given name invented by Walter Scott in the 1819 novel ''Ivanhoe''.〔Sir Walter Scott, Graham Tulloch (ed.), ''Ivanhoe'', vol. 8 of The Edinburgh Edition of the Waverley Novels, Edinburgh University Press, 1998, ISBN 9780748605736, "explanatory notes", p. 511.〕 The invented name is based on ''Cerdic'', the name of a 6th-century Anglo-Saxon king (itself from Brittonic ''Coroticus''). The name was not popularly used until the children's book ''Little Lord Fauntleroy'' by Frances Hodgson Burnett was published in 1885 to 1886, the protagonist of which is called Cedric Errol. The book was highly successful, causing a fashion trend in children's formal dress in America and popularized the given name. People named Cedric born in the years following the novel's publication include British naval officer Cedric Holland (1889–1950), American war pilot Cedric Fauntleroy (1891–1973) Irish art director Austin Cedric Gibbons (1893–1960) and British actor Cedric Hardwicke (1893–1964). ==People called Cedric== *Cedric Belfrage (1904–1990), British writer *Cedric Benson (born 1982), American football player *Cedric Bixler-Zavala (born 1974), American musician *Cedric Brooks (born 1943), Jamaican musician *Cedric Ceballos (born 1969), American basketball player *Cedric Gervais (born 1979), French dj *Cédric Gracia (born 1978), French cyclist *Cedric Gibbons (1893–1960), Irish-born American art director *Cedric Glover (born 1965), American politician *Cedric van der Gun (born 1979), Dutch footballer *Cedric "K-Ci" Hailey (born 1969), lead singer of R&B groups Jodeci and K-Ci & JoJo *Cedric Hardwicke (1893–1964), British actor *Cédric Heymans (born 1978), French rugby player *Cedric Holland (1889–1950), British naval officer *Cédric Kanté (born 1979), French football player *Cédric Klapisch (born 1961), French film director *Cedric Kyles (born 1964), aka Cedric the Entertainer, American actor and comedian *Cedric Maxwell (born 1955), American basketball player *Cedric McKinnon (born 1968), American football player *Cédric Michaud (born 1976), French skater *Cédric Mongongu (born 1989), Congolese football player *Cedric Morris (1889–1982), Welsh painter *Cedric Payne, American voice actor *Cédric Penicaud (born 1971), French swimmer *Cédric Pioline (born 1969), French tennis player *Cedric Price (1934–2003), British architect *Cedric Richmond (born 1973), American politician *Cedric Smith, several people *Cedric Soares (born 1991), Portuguese football player *Cedric Murithi (born ), Kenyan Computer Scientist *Cédric Taymans (born 1975), Belgian judoka *Cedric Tillman (disambiguation), multiple people *Cédric Villani (born 1973), French mathematician *Cedric Yarbrough (born 1973), American comedian and actor *Zedrick Borja (born 1998) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cedric」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
