Does cordless mean it runs on batteries?

No, the kettle only heats while sitting on its base, which plugs into the wall. Cordless means the kettle itself lifts off without a cord attached.

Can it be filled through the spout?

Many models can, but a wide lid opening makes filling and cleaning easier. Check the opening size if that matters to the recipient.
