What is the meaning of the name Burdick?

From the Related Link: "The Norman Conquest of England in 1066 brought much change to the island nation, including many immigrants with new names. Among these immigrants were the ancestors of the Burdick family, who lived in Leicestershire. This surname, however, is a reference to the family's former district of residence, "Bordet," Normandy, where they held a family seat as Lords of Cuilly.

Multitudes of spelling variations are a hallmark of Anglo Norman names. Most of these names evolved in the 11th and 12th century, in the time after the Normans introduced their own Norman French language into a country where Old and Middle English had no spelling rules and the languages of the court were French and Latin. To make matters worse, medieval scribes spelled Words according to sound, so names frequently in the various documents in which they were recorded. The name was spelled Burdett, Bordet, Bourdet, Burdet, Burdit, Burditt and others."

There is of German origin of this surname Burdick, perhaps not related to the Burdicks/Burdetts of English decent. Variant German surnames are Burdich, Berdick, Berdich, Budick, Budich and others. Perhaps the surname Burdick is a variant of Bendick, a German surname, which is also a variant of the common name Benedict. The name Benedict is of Latin origin and it means "blessed". Basically, the German name Burdick is variant form of Benedict, meaning "blessed". This is just a theory though, the true meaning of the German name Burdick is uncertained... for now.

Perhaps there is also of Irish/Scottish origin of the name Burdick....
