It is unknown who named it Beryllium

Found this in wikipedia:

The name beryllium comes (via Latin: Beryllus) from the Greek βήρυλλος, bērullos, beryl,

"to become pale," in reference to the palesemiprecious gemstone beryl.

Where is quadium on the periodic table?

There is no element named quadium. There is ununquadium (Element 114), which is its underneath lead and to the right of ununtrium. There was an element named Unnilquadium, but it is now Rutherfordium (Rf). Due to how that type of element name works, Quadium would simply be Element #4--which was discovered in 1798 and was named Beryllium thirty years later.
