"My name is Keiden pronounced like Kaidan. Same name, different spelling, plus there's the Japanese meaning of the word's Kei and Den which is somewhat cool." Oct. 9, 2013: 
"love it, just named our boy Kaiden pronounced kai plus den as we loved Kai for short!" Apr. 18, 2013: 
"My son was born in 2005 and we named him Kaiden. We thought the name was unique at the time, but then found out otherwise lol." Jun. 7, 2012: 
"Kaiden is my grandson's name and it's cool name. He's a gorgeous little 2 year old. So what if its a made up name, all names are made up names. And their meanings are also sometimes made up by other cultures and languages. Yay Kaiden!" Oct. 11, 2011: 
"Named my son Kaiden pronounced ky-den but of course everyone pronounces it Kay-den which annoys the hell out of me but oh well guess we will be correcting people for life lol" Aug. 20, 2011: 
"I named my boy this last year and I hadn't heard of it but now it is becoming very popular even here in the UK. There are 3 other Kaidens in his toddler group and they're all spelt differently. So far, I have only had very good feedback with this name. Some people online think it's a made up a name and I say 'SO WHAT!" so many names sound made up now anyway. I love the name. They always pronounce it as Kay-den which is right but I would like to change it to Kye - den but don't think hubby would agree. Overall it's a great name! You can't go wrong as it can be shortened to Kaid or Kye or KK, Denny, KD! It's up to you." Jul. 27, 2011: 
"I named my son Kaiden Drew. He's 10. I love the name. I actually got it from the character Raiden from Mortal Combat. I loved K's so I changed the R to a K. We pronounce it k-ay-den. He gets a lot of spellings with a C. Everyone always pronounces it correctly." May. 19, 2011: 
"My Kaiden is 6. We love the name. And he's a neat child (if I do say so myself). Love him! Love the name!" May. 10, 2011:

I think it can be used for both a boy or a girl. We are expecting a girl and are thinking about the name Kaiden or Kaeden Laine. And i have heard of a few girls named Kaiden also." Jan. 4, 2011: 
"Our son is called "Kyden" which we made up. We liked the name "Kye" but wanted to give him something more (and use Kye as a nickname) ... so came across Kaiden and tweeked the spelling (we didn't want to his name to be shortened to sound like "Kay". I've since realised/heard that the spelling "Kai" can actually be pronounced to sound like "Kye" too)." Nov. 25, 2010:

"My 6month old name is Kaiden, I thought I was making up a new name because I never heard it before. I was thinking about Jayden but a lot of kids have that name and I figured my name start with a K so y not name him Kaiden, but I really thought I was being original by spelling it Kaiden instead of Cayden or Kayden but i guess not...lol" Aug. 21, 2010: 
"my son;s name is Kaiden Richard. i was listing off names while i was pregnant and my boyfriend liked Caden i hated the spelling so i looked up alternatives and was either going with Caedon or Kaiden, i didn't like how i wrote Caedon on paper it looked sloppy but i loved how Kaiden looked!" Jul. 20, 2010:

"I named my boy Kaiden and hadnt heard of it much at the time, (nov 2004). I had heard of Kayden but I changed the spelling myself and now I see its quite a popular name after all... although not so much in England. And we get compliments everywhere we go for his unusual name." Jun. 11, 2010: 
"My son is Kaiden (my husband chose the spelling)! The name fits him well. "Fighter" is what it has been given as a meaning, however, in Japan a kaiden (spelled KAIDEN) is what they call a master swordsman (or any martial artist) with 30 + years of experience with the blade! That is not why we chose the name of course, but its a bit of neat trivia about the name and proof that it was NOT MADE UP, but stolen from the Japanese!!! lol My son was born on 2/11/04!" Jun. 7, 2010: 
"My little boy is called kaiden Lee, I love his name I saw the spelling Kayden but didn't like it so chose KAIDEN. Some people call him Hayden sometimes but I soon correct them!" Mar. 27, 2010:

"My husband liked the name Kai (pronounced Ky), so I looked it up and found that it is a Hawaiian name that means "ocean". I thought that was so cool because I love Hawaii and the ocean but I thought it sounded more like a nickname than a full name. So, I started tacking endings onto it and came up with Kaiden. We prounouce it Kyden. Sometimes we call him Kai too! I love his name and think it's so special but EVERYONE pronouces it Kayden!" Feb. 2, 2010: 
"my sons name is KAIDEN though i have no idea on the meaning of it he is now 20mths old" Jan. 7, 2010: 
"i have never heard the name before, i was layed in bed couldnt sleep as u do lol and i thought i will try choose a name for our son and kaiden just popped into my head and as far as i know thats what i am gonna call him, just cant think of a middle name to go with it tho, my husband does not like that name but he named our last 2 babies so this is my tuen as its out 5th and last baby. everyone i tell the name to love it x" Dec. 27, 2009: 
"My son's name is kaiden george he's a strong boy who talks a lot he was born on the 15 / 02 / 08" Dec. 17, 2009: 
"My sons name is Kaiden Thomas. He is strong and really determined and sure of himself. He loves to meet people and does not let anything hold him back. He was born with a low chance of survival, and was in the ICU for 10 days. You would never know it now though. His growth charts show he is above the 100 percentile and I have a feeling he is just going to keep going at an amazing rate. Everybody loves his name." Dec. 16, 2009: 
"My newest grand daughter is going to be named Kaiden. due this april. I love the name for a male or female." Dec. 15, 2009:

"My baby boy is named Kaiden and I LOVE the name. I love the meaning and I love the strength behind it. Patrick is his middle name after his grandfather who passed away before he was born... I love the way the two names flow together. Kaiden Patrick. Such a handsome and strong name. When he's older people will call him Kade i'm sure and that's just awesome." Dec. 3, 2009: 
"It is great Name, I named my 2 months child as Kaiden, he is borned on 16th Sep. 2009" Nov. 10, 2009: 
"My son's name is Kaiden. He's 17 months old. When we picked it..."if we ever have a boy", the name was relatively unique. By the time he was born (two years later)it was far more common. I think spelling his name will be easy by the time he's school age, because it's becoming very common. It's a great name." Nov. 2, 2009: 
"I'm having a son, and namin him Kaidan/Kaiden/Kayden - still can't choose which way to spell it tho." Aug. 20, 2009: 
"i like the names jayden and aiden. my middle name is Kay, so thats how we got kaiden. our original plan was to give the baby my husbands middle name or first name as the babys middle name and give the baby a first name of its own. and if we had a daughter the middle name was going to be kay, but we found out chances were super low for having another baby, so just incase we didnt have another baby, we wanted the baby to have a name to go with both of us. Kaiden Patrick (fathers middle name. i have the middle name of my mother. her sister has the same middle name as her mother and both of my brothers have our fathers first name as a middle name." Aug. 16, 2009: 
"I had my son Feb. 12/08 and had never heard the name before but liked Aiden and heard it was the most popular boys name for 07 so I came up with Kaiden, and now I have heard at least 4 others called Kaiden but with diferent spelling. I love the name as does everyone that meets my son." Jul. 29, 2009:

"I named my Daughter Kaiden. I had to be different, people love it or at least they say they do? lol" May. 8, 2009: 
"We were looking for boys name for our second and "Caden" kept popping in a majority of the baby name sites we visited, I really liked it but didn't want another "C" name as our first had a "C" name, someone suggested spelling it "Kaiden" pronounced simply "K-den". We didn't like it spelt with a "K" at first but it grew on us. Like may others we hadn't heard of it either and liked that fact, so we called our son, once born "Kaiden Riley", we really like it and so does everyone else. I have heard of one other little boy with the same name and spelt the same too, so not very popular in Oz or NZ yet, hopefully it will stay that way!!" Apr. 26, 2009: 
"my babies due in 10 more days and ive decided to name him Kaiden i love the name!" Apr. 10, 2009: 
"Love this name! Heard it about 2years ago and thankfully my husband loves it too, our Baby is due 5/8/09 if its a boy it will most def be called Kaiden, just deciding on the spelling since there are soo many ways to spell it :)" Mar. 10, 2009: 
"My son was born Jan 24 2008 and we called him Kaiden. My husband liked Aiden and I liked Kade, so we put it together and came up with Kaiden. It was the only boys name we agreed on. We hadn't heard of any other Kaiden's before. Later on we read in a baby name book that it meant friend and companion. Since then the name has been coming up everywhere spelt many different ways." Feb. 18, 2009: 
"I fell in love with the name kaiden so i named my son Kaiden." Feb. 16, 2009: 
"We named our son kaiden who was born (02/03/07) i liked the name ever since i heard it a few years before and now i've noticed there are a lot of little boys called Kaiden." Feb. 12, 2009: 
"we had a son in july 2006 and named him kaiden after i came across this name on the web. we live in the uk and people always so oh thats different and as of yet we have not came across another kaiden" Feb. 5, 2009:

"gawjuss name :)

x" Dec. 19, 2008: 
"Okay everyone, my family's last name is Kaiden. It's pronounced KAYDEN, like "maiden with a K". People do frequently pronounce it KIDEN (rhymes with BIDEN), but AID is pronounced MAID, RAID, AFRAID, etc, so it seems fairly simple to me. I'm pleased to hear that it's being used as a first name now." Oct. 16, 2008: 
"I just had a baby boy a month ago and I named him Kaiden! love the name. =]" Sep. 16, 2008: 
"My husband and I have an 11 month old son named Kaiden. We love the name, it was the only one we could agree on and we get compliments everywhere we go." Sep. 16, 2008: 
"My son was born in Nov 1997. We couldn't find a boys name to agree on; combined Aidan with a "K" and my husband spelled the name wrong on the birth certificate= Kaiden. We love it and have met LOTs of kids with that name since. Both boys and girls and spelled many different ways." Aug. 15, 2008: 
"MY HUSBAND AND I CAME UP WITH THE NAME KAIDEN BEFORE WE WERE EVEN MARRIED. AND WHEN IT CAME TIME FOR US TO START OUR FAMILY AND WE FOUND OUT IT WAS A BOY WE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO THINK ABOUT IT, WE KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE KAIDEN. AT THE TIME THAT WE CAME UP WITH THAT NAME WE HAD NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE, BUT WHEN WE FOUND OUT HE WAS A BOY WE HEARD IT EVERYWHERE OR THINGS CLOSE TO IT. YOU THINK YOU FIND SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE. YOU CAN'T WIN I GUESS." Jul. 28, 2008: 
"ive gt a 20 mnth old called kaiden before i didnt hear it but now it seems common i fink it suits him so much wen i was lookin in d babybook it meant excitin" Jul. 27, 2008: 
"My husband and I just found we are havng a son. We have loved the name kaiden for weeks (after finding similar names in a baby book) and are so pleased we get to use it! I just looked at this site by chance, the meaning "fighter" is perfect and very speacial to us as he is one surviving twin." Jun. 6, 2008: 
"I had my son, Kaiden, in January of 2004. At the time, I have never heard it. I liked the name Aiden and Caleb, so I sort of combined then and changed the spelling to be unique. Now, I hear the name everywhere. I've heard it means "fighter" and also "round and happy"." Jun. 6, 2008: 
"I've got a son named Kaiden as it was the ONLY name my husband and I could agree on. Since he was born I've heard of lots of other Kaiden's, but they've been spelled differently. My Kaiden was the only baby with the name that was spelled K-A-I-D-E-N in our hospital for the whole year 2007. The meaning of the name fits "fighter" him well too as he was born with bilateral clubfoot and he's spent more than 3/4 of his life in plaster casts up to his thighs and braces." May. 29, 2008: 
"My 9 month old boy is named Kaiden. Everyone we meet just loves the name. We live in Canada I have not met anyone as of yet with the same name" May. 21, 2008: 
"We named our son Kaiden also. (06-06-06 6:28 am) It seems I'm like eaveryone else I thought I was being original =) I added the K becuase I liked the name Adian but like 4 couples in my lamoze class were using the same name. I had no idea Kaiden was so popular!" May. 20, 2008: 
"we are calling our baby boy kaiden when he is born. Had picked this name for our first child but had a girl. Thought i found an unusal name that i had never heard. They are no other kaidens around here but have heard it is popular in other places." Apr. 29, 2008: 
"You all seem to pronounce it different! My Son's name is Caden, as we are welsh this it the welsh spelling and it means Fighter. People often say 'Cadd un' rather than 'Cade un' when reading it from being written down. I also thought i had made a new name when i choose this for my son, but apparently its VERY popular in the US! We called him Caden Brynley, but if i had a girl we would of used the same name but Kaiden Georgia." Apr. 29, 2008: 
"My wife and I named our son Kaiden as we both loved the name. When our doctor saw the name he asked if we purposefully named him Kaiden as it was an anagram of our surname. Well to say we were shocked is an understatement we didnýt even make the connection. Our surname is Adkin so the only letter missing in our sons name is the "E" Very coincidental. He is 3 now and loves his name as does everyone who hears it." Apr. 28, 2008: 
"Not many Caden/Kaden/Kaidens in the UK. I heard a lady calling it in the park once, but I'm not sure if she was refering to her son or her dog, lol. There are lots of interesting meanings for the name, most being warrior/fighter orientated. I have a baby boy named Kaiden, I get the feeling he'll either love it or hate it. I'll have to wait till he can talk to find out!!" Apr. 17, 2008: 
"My husband and I love this name and we are using it for our little girl due in June. I had seen Caden for a boy, but we thought spelling it "Kaiden" makes it more girly," Mar. 18, 2008: 
"To the person who left the comment before me... my boyfriends name is Kaiden.. and my last name is Davis.. very coinsidental lol" Mar. 18, 2008: 
"I absolutely love my name Kaiden Davis, so many people come up to me and say how much they love my name, its a very cool name" Mar. 17, 2008: 
"I wanted something different for my 2nd son and deen Caden in a baby name book. I thought I would do some creative spelling to make it more unique= Kaiden Joshua Eric born 04-04-04 at 4:04am the name just fit him to a T." Mar. 11, 2008: 
"MY DAUGHTER IS CALLED kAIDEN APPARENTLY THE ONLY GIRL WITH THAT NAME........" Mar. 10, 2008: 
"I named my son Kaiden in 1998. Was reading baby book, found the name Cade. Kind of liked it but something was missing. Thought I was being creative by coming up with Kaiden." Mar. 6, 2008: 
"I am going to be naming my son Kaiden in 6 weeks. Everyone that sees his name writen or said has no problem with pronouncing it. They have never seen the name spelt the way I'm spwlling it (Kaiden) but they got used to it. The correct way of saying this name is---Kai-den. I havent heard of this name around my area." Feb. 25, 2008: 
"As soon as I saw this name (spelled Cayden) I fell in love with it. My first son will be named Kaiden." Feb. 7, 2008: 
"My sons name is Kaiden and he fits the name! I have only met about 5 other people with that name but i have heard that it is on the rise! I have never heard anyone pronounce it wrong. We pronounce it like Kay-Din!" Feb. 5, 2008: 
"so there is this kid named kaiden he is tottaly awesome cause my name is kaiden davis and im cool like that" Jan. 30, 2008: 
"my little boy is called kaiden i thought it was nice but not too different.He is nearly 2 and now i hear it all the time." Jan. 17, 2008: 
"Me and my Fiance named our son Kaiden. We feel that its a name that is different - without being too different.
Just annoyed that people cant spell it correctly. Cayden, Caydan, Kayden, Kaydin. LOL" Jan. 10, 2008: 
"My little sister's name is Kaiden! I think it better suits a girl!" Nov. 23, 2007: 
"My wife and I were arguing about the two names we liked and combined them and restructured the spelling when our son was born in December 2004 she liked Hayden and I liked Cameron, all I could think of was Hayden Fox from the old TV show "Coach" and all she could think of was Cameron Diaz "That's a girls name!" I thought we were being original, after we filled out the birth certificate the most popular baby names came on the tv Caden I believe was #3!" Nov. 16, 2007: 
"My son was born in September 2005, we named him Kaiden. I hadn't heard of it before, but it seems to have become quite popular since then. Our son really suits his name." Nov. 13, 2007: 
"I named my son tis in 2004. I knew it was going to be popular since it was an "aidan" sound which seems to be the current trend. but it fits him better than any other name I could have found.WE have yet to encounter anyone who spells it the same way." Nov. 11, 2007: 
"My son's name is Kaiden William, I picked the name before it got so popular. I love it, fits him well. Little Fighter, it's also Celtic." Nov. 7, 2007: 
"I am pregnat with a girl and will use the name Kaiden (pronounce, Kay-den)as her name. I really think the name has a great femine flair when pronouced this way." | |
