Freya and Caden

[surprisenumber3]

These are the two names I'm thinking of:

Freya Anne for a girl (Anne after my late aunt)

and

Caden for a boy - not sure how to spell it yet though (Kayden, Caiden....).

Not sure of a middle name to go with it though.

any thoughts?

Anyone know a Caden?

Kay leb

[surprisenumber3]

lol MamaG, I do things like that too!

[beaniescreamyb]

if you spell it Caden isn'y it pronounced CAD EN rather than CAY DEN?

[kittywise]

And What is it with theses .."..aden" names

jaden
caden
baden
saden

[surprisenumber3]

I like Jayden too. Hubby doesn't, lol, what a surprise!

[Horton]

Love Freya and also Anne but not keen on Caden, personally.

[findtheriver]

I totally agree kitty - they sound totally made up and common as hell.

Freya is lovely. Caden/Kayden/Kaiden or anything of that ilk is vile.

[Liffey]

Freya is nice, but it came from 'nowhere' quite suddenly and will date her, some point, much further down the line. But, having said that, I think it's very pretty and I actually know one who is my age, although she spells it freyja.

Caden. Anything that rhymes with Aiden is a bit done to death. Either Aidan, the original name, or maybe, Baden, as in Lord Baden Powell sounds real. But Jaden, Kaden, Zayden...... I saw them all on the American name boards years ago when prg with DC1 and they were being pounded by the classier Americans way back then.

Freya is gorgeous.

Caden/Jayden is the modern equivalent of Kevin.

I like Freya - very, very popular where I am, but pretty.

Caden - no. Sounds American/made up.

[BabyBaby123]

Caleb is lovely! How about Hayden? - better than Caden

[kerryk]

not keen on either.

freya is nice but to popular at the moment.

caden/kayden tome sounf=ds like the mum is trying to hard to be cool.

i find it qiote unusual that one person would pick these particular 2 names.

i is quite posh and the other a bit chavvy.

[kerryk]

sorry no idea what happened to my spelling there!

[kerryk]

how about noah is you are after a binle name?

it is my all time fave name but i have 2 girls so could not use it!

[surprisenumber3]

I don't actually know a Freya, and had never heard of Caden until I searched baby names so I had no idea it was chavvy!

Round here we have loads of Holly's, Lily's, Megan's, Jessica's, Ellie's and Olivias. And boys are mainly Thomas, Connor, Kieran Harrison and Tyler.

Another poster that thinks Caden is super chavvy. Freya is ok though.

For the record I also think Ethan is a bit pikey too...

[zeee]

Caleb is lovely - similar to Caden, very cool I think, and also Biblical so goes well with Jacob, Daniel and Joseph.

[ObsidianBlackbirdMcNight]

tiff from christopher? are you for real? imagine calling your son tiff...it's a girl's name, short for tiffany!

[Liffey]

Tiff Needham from fth gear or whatever it's called is a man I guess.

Don't like his name though.

[gauly]

Samuel goes with your other names I think.

[aj13]

I actually liked kayden (only 1!!!lol)
I think I only liked it as my first boy choice will be Jayden and as twins run in the family I would have had these to boy names together but its clearly not liked!!!

How about Reece. I always wanted that name but cant now as best friends boy called Reece.

[LuLuBai]

Freya's OK. Been around for ever (I went to school with one). I really struggle with Caden and I do agree that Caleb is much, much better.

[purpleduck]

My friends little boy is called Kaeden

She is not a chav

He is a very cute LO

[LuLuBai]

It's just that 'ayden' sound. I think it will date. It's the noughties version of the 70s 'aron' sound (e.g. Darren, Aaron, Sharon, Karen)
