An alternate theory suggests the surname could be a topographic, denoting someone who lived in or near a clearing, from the Old English word ride, rede, or rude, meaning “clearing”. The name could also be a habitational name denoting someone who was from places so named, such as Rede Court, co. Kent, Rides, co. Kent, Ride Way, co. Surrey, and Reed Farm in Wadhurst, co. Sussex. It can also be an English habitational surname denoting someone who lived in Read, co. Lancashire, Reed, co. Hertfordshire, or Rede, co. Suffolk, derived from the Old English word raege, meaning “female deer”.
