Paddock
Paddock is a toad mentioned by the witches in the first act of William Shakespeare's play MacBeth. Paddock is an archaic English word for "toad."
A paddock is also an enclosure for livestock and can also be a field if you're talking to an Australian or a New Zealander. The word appears in many English-derived placenames and surnames largely because of this.
