During the 13th century, the surname appeared in various records with spellings such as "Toadevyne," "Toadwyne," and "Todewyn." These variations likely emerged due to differences in regional dialects and inconsistencies in written records.

In the 14th century, the name Toadvine was found in the Hundred Rolls of Oxfordshire, which were administrative records of landowners and tenants. This suggests that the family had established roots in the county of Oxfordshire by that time.
