Cedda
Cedda (alternatively Cadda or Chad) was the second son of Cuthwine and consequently a member of the Wessex family. He was born c. 590 and his death date is unknown. He had one recorded son, Coenberht, the father of King Caedwalla of Wessex.
His name is related to that of St Chad of Mercia (spelt Ceadda in Bede's Ecclesiastical History) and is derived from the Brythonic (British Celtic) root 'cat' or 'cad' meaning "battle."[1] It is one of a number of apparently Celtic names found in the West Saxon ruling family, including that of Cedda's grandson Caedwalla.

gollark: Look at the i5-7200U vs i5-8250U. They have the same 15W TDP (not that Intel make that very meaningful) but the 7200U has half the cores and higher base clocks.
gollark: Yes. They used to have 2 cores.
gollark: If you look at the mobile lineup for 7th gen vs 8th gen, you see that 8th gen has a lot more cores and also worse clocks.
gollark: Er, not their laptops, their mobile CPUs.
gollark: Intel decided to add tons of cores to their laptops without (allegedly) increasing the TDP, so clocks are bad.
