From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:
Thaddaeus
n
  1. (New Testament) supposed brother of St. James; one of the Apostles who is invoked in prayer when a situation seems hopeless
    Synonym(s): Jude, Saint Jude, St. Jude, Judas, Thaddaeus
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Thaddaeus
      breast, the name of one of the apostles (Mark 3:18), called
      "Lebbaeus" in Matt. 10:3, and in Luke 6:16, "Judas the brother
      of James;" while John (14:22), probably referring to the same
      person, speaks of "Judas, not Iscariot." These different names
      all designate the same person, viz., Jude or Judas, the author
      of the epistle.
