Literary name

Podrick Origin and Meaning

The name Podrick is a boy's name .

Podrick Payne is something of a Zelig character in Game of Thrones -- though he's never been all that prominent, he's popped up in many scenes in many different storylines on the show, first as squire to Tyrion Lannister and later to Brienne of Tarth.

Most of the names George R.R. Martin invented for his book series A Song of Ice and Fire are light tweaks of existing English names, and this is no exception, being one stroke away from Rodrick. But in this case, that small change makes a fairly big difference -- because there are essentially no other baby names that start with the letters "Pod."
