Love the name - undecided on spelling and on which gender I prefer

Eden is lovely for a girl, I haven’t met a boy with the name so it sounds feminine to me. I haven’t heard of Edyn before - people might say Ed-in rather than Eed-en?

Eden is awful , spoilt little pageant girl name

Edyn? Is that pronounced Edd-in?

If you like Eden, spell it Eden.

I named my daughter Eden :)

Eden is fine for a girl though

i prefer the original spelling - Eden. It is traditionally a boy’s name but it has become unisex with I think possibly more girls named Eden.

I read Edyn as ‘Edd-inn’ which would be bad enough as a boys name but dreadful for a girl 🙈

Edyn surely is made up. Eden is a girls name.
