Caden

Pronunciation: KAY-din (key)

Commentary on the name Caden:

You can rustle up an Irish origin for Caden, but this name's popularity is about pure sound. You simply cannot get a more fashionable set of phonemes, and the nickname Cade is a winner too. But an entire classroom of rhyming boys is a real risk here. Caden, meet Hayden, Aidan, Jadon, and Braeden.... Each name has multiple spellings in the top 1000 list.
