Is it a boy or a girl? They're both unisex names are they not?

@Topuptheglass I'm assuming a boy. I've never heard of a girl called Hayden Confused

The Americans use Hayden as a girl's name as well as a boy's name. Hayden Pannetiere was in Heroes, playing Claire Bennett.

I think of it as a male name, though, because of the name Haydn in Wales. People here used to be keen on surnames of musicians / literary figures as boys' names, hence two or three generations of Haydns, Handels and Byrons.

Brodie if it's a boy, Hayden if it's a girl. Congratulations too! Flowers

Brodie is most definitely a boy's name, it's Scottish in origin and means 'little ridge' as a geographical feature. It's not, and never has been, a girls name.

The only Hayden I know is a girl, but I that's also a boy's name.

Brodie, I have one (he's most definitely a boy!) and its a lovely name!
