Strong
Mounce

Thayer's
Thaddaeus = "large hearted, courageous"

one of the twelve apostles. From a comparison with the catalogue of apostles in Lk 6:16, and Acts 1:13, is seems that Judas, Lebbaeus and Thaddaeus were the same person, and the writer of the book of Jude.

Thayer's Expanded Definition

Θαδδαῖος, Θαδδαιου, ὁ (תַּדַּי, perhaps large-hearted or courageous, although it has not been shown that תַּד equivalent to the Hebrew שַׁד can meanpectus as well asmamma; (some would connect the terms by the fact that the 'child of one's heart' may be also described as a 'bosom-child'; but see B. D. under the word )), Thaddeus, a surname of the apostle Jude; he was also called Lebbaeus and was the brother of James the less: Matthew 10:3 R G L Tr WH; Mark 3:18. (Cf. B. D. under the word; Keil on Matthew, the passage cited; WH's Appendix, p. 11b. The latter hold the name Λεββαῖος to be due to an early attempt to bring Levi (Λευεις) the publican (Luke 5:27) within the Twelve.)
