Here's a breakdown by spelling variation for all forms of the name in Leitrim from 1800's Baptism and Marriage records.
Spellings largely derived from the Rodahan / Rudohan / Redahan pronunciation are the most frequest.
All Rodaughan / Rodaghan (silent 'u and g') records will almost certainly be from Fenagh parish. The original source of most / "if not all" of the english forms.
Rodaghan (29 records) of which 25 are Birth Records
Redican (20) 18 Birth Records
Rodahan (15) 11 Birth Records
Redehan (15) 12 Birth Records
Reddighan (6) 6 Birth Records
Rodaughan (5) 1 Birth Record
Rodohan (5) 3 Birth Records
Rodagan (4) 4 Birth Records
Rodoghan (3) 1 Birth Record
Rodican (4) 2 Birth Records
Redihan (3) 3 Birth Records
Redagan (3) 3 Birth Records
Redahan (2) 1 Birth Record
And 1 record each for the following spellings (13 in total);
Rudican, Rudihan, Rodigan, Redigan, Reddihon, Reddihan, Redaihan, Readighan, Redhian, Ruddigan, Redegan, Reddeghan and Reddegan
It's possible that the modern Sligo, Tipperary branches of 'Redican' may be from a slighly different source or an earlier branch of the same people!? Feedback appreciated.
