Kidley Vad efternamn betyder
from Kidley in Ballingham (Herefs) and perhaps also from a lost or as yet unidentified place of similar name in central England. The etymology of the Herefs place-name is uncertain due to a lack of medieval forms but it appears to be named with Old English lēah ‘wood woodland clearing’ as the final element.
