Dexter is way better than Kaden!

mmrred · 24/10/2009 19:18

I love Freya, too, but just a note of caution? There were 2 Freya's at my baby massage class.

homebound · 24/10/2009 19:17

Poppy i would be more apt to change Kaden to Kadence, a cadence is a steady beat that a drum makes.....which i think makes a great name for boy or girl.

hippipotamiHasLost72lbs · 24/10/2009 19:05

Freya is gorgeous. Brilliant name.

As your title states 'what do you think' I shall tell you what I think of Kaden.
One, no, two words; Just. Don't.
Michael on the other hand is great - nice, strong, traditional, nice.

Heated · 24/10/2009 19:00

Freya and Callum are lovely.

Prefer Michael to Kaden.

JANEITEPatrickNormanMcHennesy · 24/10/2009 18:57

Freya is fine. Michael is fine. Sorry but I don't like Kaden at all.

I taught a lovely Dexter once but it is not a name I would choose; nor is Callum tbh.

Freya Elizabeth
Freya Hope
Freya Claire
Freya Jane

Like Freya. Not Kaden though sorry. Sounds bit made up imho..
Like Callum best out of the boys names.

blametheparents · 24/10/2009 18:52

We have a Freya, she is 4 and she is lovely!

NormaSknockers · 24/10/2009 18:51

Freya is so pretty! DS was nearly a Dexter. fab name!

pointyhat · 24/10/2009 18:48

Freya is nice. Michael is far far nicer than KAden

kaden not my cup of tea at all, but as othes have said if you love it that's all thatmatters

Thats true anyghoul and rachel234, i guess if we all liked the same thing we'd all be called the same name
Thanks for all your opinions

Excactly, AnyGhoul.

I personally wouldn't choose either Freya or Kaden, but the OP probably wouldn't like my name choices either.

Without 'seeing' other posters' sytles, there judgement doesn't mean much, does it? I mean, maybe you'd find my choice of hairstyle, clothes, food etc. really awful and be happy that I don't like your name choices.

I like the freya charlotte idea, dh likes charlotte
You are all successfully talking me into Dexter Kaden Michael at the mo

AnyGhoulKno · 24/10/2009 17:26

Dexter is fab

Don't ask us though, for all you know our kids could be called all kinds of weird names

yelpol · 24/10/2009 17:25

i like kaden... tis nice!

southernbelle77 · 24/10/2009 17:24

Love Freya! Was on our list until a friend recently called her baby girl it!

For me, it was going to be Freya Charlotte probably.

Don't have any particular feelings on Kaden but don't hate it. Do like Dexter though!

diddl · 24/10/2009 17:24

I love Freya.

Don´t like any of the boys names except Michael,though.

rachel234 · 24/10/2009 17:23

The main thing is that YOU like your choices! Nothing wrong with either Freya or Kaden in my opinion.
