Dont like either,but Caden is naff, sorry

GinevraPotter · 04/12/2016 20:43

I think Caden Lewis sounds nicer than Lewis Caden. I like both names equally.

Pidlan · 04/12/2016 20:40

I agree with usual. There are some shocking snobs on here.

I prefer Lewis because I think Caden will be spelling it out every day of his life... But agree that Caden Lewis Matthews sounds better than Lewis Caden Matthews.

Just because I don't like a name how does that automatically make me a snob usual?

Lewis, definitely

sananbaz · 04/12/2016 18:42

Far too many Caden, Cayden, Caiden, Kaiden, Kayden......plus Jaden, Jaiden, Jayden....and Braden, Brayden, Hayden, Haydn......
It's abit like all the boys at my school being called Mark - they end up either having to use their surname to identify which Mark, or worse, they have Big Mark, Little Mark, Loud Mark or Naughty Mark (or similar) to contend with.
I am also not a snob, but do hear alot of shouting and swearing at little boys called Caden (or similar), with little kids, you tend to frequent child friendly places. I just happen to hear these names more frequently. Sorry.
I do like Lewis.

SorenaJ · 04/12/2016 18:29

Lewis (it's a really nice name)

Coey2016 · 04/12/2016 18:12

Lewis.

Idodo · 04/12/2016 18:10

Lewis

MikeUniformMike · 04/12/2016 17:46

Lewis. Caden is awful IMO.

Sophronia · 04/12/2016 17:35

I prefer Lewis as it's more classic, and I think Caden, as it's more modern, might sound a bit dated in future.

Evergreen17 · 04/12/2016 17:23

Lewis is a lovely name

Caden is awful.
Lewis is really nice (although prefer Louis as a spelling).

RusholmeRuffian · 04/12/2016 17:02

Lewis, all the way.

SausageSoda · 04/12/2016 16:22

Lewis. I hate Caden, sorry. Not because I'm a snob but because I think it's a shit awful name.

RortyCrankle · 04/12/2016 16:19

Oysterbabe
I'm afraid Caden is a name you could imagine been screamed in Asda at some brat who is destroying the place.

How would you know dwarling, please tell me you don't go to Asda, or can you hear them from the Waitrose car park? Grin

Seriously, I like Lewis but Caden is horrible.
