I am named Jaiden and i am not 35 years od i am 9. I was like a miracle to my parents. I was born on July 4th independance day. I was born at somewhere around 9:00. I was very tiny just a little bit bigger that my puppy when she was born which was a couple months ago. I think my name is perfect and that it is smart,sexy,young,friendly,creative,strong, and sophisticated because i am all of those. I am in 4th grade. And if you want to name your baby after me then you'll see how much the miracle is.
- Personal experiences with the name Jaiden
My younger son was born in 2002 and his name is Jaiden. I have a J name, my parents had J names and my husband had a J name. So inevitably we named our kids J names. Our first son has a common name after a relative and I wanted something more unique for our second son. I really liked the name Aidan but changed the initial spelling from Jaidan to Jaiden. At the time I had no idea Will Smith's son's name was Jaden and even at my doctor's office everyone was telling me what a unique name I chose and asking me how I came up with it. Little did I know once my son started school he would be in classes with tons of kids with his name. In his kindergarten class alone there were 3 others with his name, boys and girls, with various spellings.

There is a minor Jadon in the Old Testament, but this is no biblical revival. Cross Jacob with Aidan, and voila: the sound of the times. The name's popularity shot up starting in 1998, when celebrity parents Will Smith and Jada Pinkett chose this male twist on mom's name.
