I teach a few female Edens. I'm
not a fan to be honest.

pinkmagic1 · 28/06/2017 19:26

Female at first but I am aware it can be a boys name too.
It's a beautiful name.

I would have said male, but then we met a little girl Eden on holiday, so I might well think girl first now.

i wouldn't immediately associate that word with being a name, but if I knew it was a name and not the Eden Project in Cornwall, or the Garden of Eden or a garden centre, I would think female

Inneedofadvice20172234 · 28/06/2017 19:28

Female and slightly chavvy

FrogsLegs31 · 28/06/2017 19:28

I've known both, suited the boy better Smile

Perfume

Glowerglass · 28/06/2017 19:28

Perfume for me too.

originalbiglymavis · 28/06/2017 19:29

Girl, Jewish.

MikeUniformMike · 28/06/2017 19:30

I'd think British Prime Minister. It's nice but a bit chavvy as a girl's name.

SumAndSubstance · 28/06/2017 19:30

Definitely place.

ophiotaurus · 28/06/2017 19:31

Boy but only because I know a boy Eden.

RiverTam · 28/06/2017 19:31

Female, if we're taking names.

RiverTam · 28/06/2017 19:32

Though, thinking about it, it makes a nice boys' name.

Blondielongie · 28/06/2017 19:32

I think of that horrible film :(
Girl though.

Female

MikeUniformMike · 28/06/2017 19:33

I know an Eden. Aged about 20. Everyone calls her Ede. Not chavvy as a name for her as she seemed to be the only one around when all other girls seemed to be Emily or Chlo (Chloe).

mintich · 28/06/2017 19:35

Female

Eden? Sounds like the parents are trying too hard to sound cool. But end up sounding chavvy. Girl
