Boy's name to go with Kaydn

38 replies

I know you will all hate the name Kaydn but that is my 5 year old son's name, before it became popular & no we are not chavs!(or so I like to think Grin)

I am now expecting DC2, but struggling to come up with a boy's name. Top of the list so far is Alex...

Any other ideas?

Something like Max would work.

Benjamin
William
Samuel

Surely the natural choice for the brother of Kaydn is Kai?

Alex is a good name, but it doesn't really go with Kaydn...

Well, although we have a Kaydn I can't stand names like Jayden, Bailey etc.

I want something a bit more traditional but not so much so that if I have 2 DS' they sound like they are from different families entirely.

Our original choices for DS were Kaydn & Jacob and I am actually glad we went with Kaydn as he has at least 5 friends called Jake or Jacob.

What sort of names do you like?

Alex is fine. But isn't a particular type of name so don't really know what to suggest.

I'd guess that somebody who liked Kaydn likes something modern? Yes? Or do you like unique? The only person I know with a Kaden (I think that's the right spelling), has others with surnamey names. I won't out them here but things like Bailey, Harvey, Tyler etc.

Give us some more info and we'll suggest some names.

Thanks for the feedback.

I had no idea that rhyming names were so popular on here! Do all your DC have rhyming names? Hmm
