what do you think? I have a James (jay) Isaac-Elijah (just Isaac to us) and a Tyler. Do u think Kayden fits in?

I don't really like Kayden, sorry.

However, the main character in The Boy of Delights is called Kay (he's a boy): Kay Harker. Rather nice.

I don't think it's short for Kayden, somehow.

AuntieMaggie · 21/01/2010 21:59

my parents are obviously in that group....

gaelicsheep · 21/01/2010 21:58

Lol, you spelled it wrong too Rindercella! There's no "e", it's an "a"! A good early medieval saint's name. And I'm really not liking any association at all with the "ayden" group!!

usualsuspect · 21/01/2010 21:56

Its no worse then the type of people that think Ethel is an ok name for a baby

BigusBumus · 21/01/2010 21:55

I did get my apology in quite quickly though!

Rindercella · 21/01/2010 21:55

Sorry, just not that keen on any 'ayden' names; don't even like Aiden (must be the sound I don't like) - just a personal thing of mine and I mean nothing against any -aydens out there

BigusBumus · 21/01/2010 21:54

Gosh, terrible spelling and English there. Too many wines....

AuntieMaggie · 21/01/2010 21:54

one type of people? nice.

BigusBumus · 21/01/2010 21:53

"Some people are very quick to deem some names "chavvy" or made up because they are unusual."

No, not because they are unual but just because they are only used in abundance by one type of people...

gaelicsheep · 21/01/2010 21:51

It's like about three different names jumbled together. Please don't use it.

Rindercella, there's nowt wrong with "ayden" type names without another letter and spelled correctly. The trouble is that with the proliferation of the made-up variety, everyone keeps asking me how to spell my son's name. There is only one way, and it doesn't involve a "y" or an "e"!

Have googled to find the origin and the 2nd google result is an American porn star, Kayden Kross. Here SHE is. It's from the Latin for Big Of Tit And Loose Of Morals.

I don't like to say mean things to pregnant women as a rule, but it's a bloody awful name.

KERALA1 · 21/01/2010 21:47

I am afraid I don't like it at all. It does go with Tyler though. Like James and really like Isaac.

Rindercella · 21/01/2010 21:47

Afraid I really don't like it. Reminds me of my last job and I used to have to go on daily/weekly/monthly 'cadence' calls (awful Americanism).

Not keen on the 'ayden' names either.

AuntieMaggie · 21/01/2010 21:46

Arabic/hebrew origins like Jayden.

A lot of people think my name is made up too - it's not it's also of hebrew origin.

Some people are very quick to deem some names "chavvy" or made up because they are unusual.

BigusBumus · 21/01/2010 21:45

It's vile. Sorry. Proper chavtastic.

janeite · 21/01/2010 21:42

Tyler and Kayden sound very different to James and Isaac. I don't like it at all, sorry.

pooexplosions · 21/01/2010 21:40

What does it mean then, what is its origin?

AuntieMaggie · 21/01/2010 21:37

I like it and yes it fits.

For those of you that think its made up - it's not!

I am starting to feel sorry for poor Kayden with his tanned American sitcom name and his already pissed off teachers....

pooexplosions · 21/01/2010 21:32

Really awful, made up, tacky american sitcom type name.

Ziggurat · 21/01/2010 21:27

I would nod and smile to someone actually called it, but the OP did ask for opinions.

MortaIWombat · 21/01/2010 21:20

pmsl at complete lack of tact "little shit". Very naughty...

Ziggurat · 21/01/2010 21:13

It's a cobbled together name - don't like it at all. I wouild expect Kayden to be a little shit.

crankytwanky · 21/01/2010 20:34

It deffo fits.
