Théodred (T.A. 2978-3019) was the only son and heir of King Théoden of Rohan. His mother, Elfhild, died in childbirth.
History
Théodred held the title of Second Marshal of the Mark, and was slain in the First Battle of the Fords of Isen defending the islet in the middle of the ford. With no siblings, this made his cousin, Éomer, heir to the throne of Rohan.
Etymology
Théodred's name is probably taken from the Anglo-Saxon words þēod ("folk", "people", "nation") and rǣd ("counsel").[1]
Portrayal in Adaptations
2002: The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers:

- Théodred appears in Rise of Isengard and The Prince of Rohan, the fourth and fifth book of Allies of the King.
