Relating to the Daedra; of the people
In modern usage, this name is primarily a literary and pop-culture coinage derived from the 'Elder Scrolls' video game franchise, where it refers to a race of powerful supernatural beings. Etymologically, it blends the fictional term 'Daedra' with the Latin suffix '-ic'. It may also be viewed as a modern variant of the name Dedrick, which stems from the Germanic name Theodoric, meaning 'ruler of the people'.
