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.

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.

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

LynetteScavo · 24/10/2009 19:22

Dexter is way better than Kaden!

LynetteScavo · 24/10/2009 19:23

Where are all these Freyas? - I haven't met any!

blametheparents · 24/10/2009 19:33

There are no other Freya's in my DD's year at school (60 intake) and none in Yr 1 or 2 either

shockers · 24/10/2009 19:37

Love Freya... there is a really sparky 8 yr old called Freya at ds's school.
Will have to agree to disagree on the boys names though....

shockers · 24/10/2009 19:38

Except Michael... quite like that and it's unusual these days.

Hmmmm remembering how I felt when pregnant and best friend had a major strop at me for wanting name Jude if DD turned out to be a boy I don't really want to critisise your choice but.... Maybe Michael would be better as the first name.... Do agree with the where are all the Freyas though???

ThisPhantomPlopsPumpkins · 24/10/2009 20:38

Yes Aidan is nice, Kaden not so much. Prefer Michael to Kaden.

Nahla · 24/10/2009 20:40

I like Freya and Kaden. But not Kaden Michael.

Sorry but I really don't like think Dexter. Must have something to do with the cartoon, he looks so creepy...

Anyway, you're the one who's going to be calling him/her down for dinner for the next 18 odd years so as long as you like it go for it!!!

Tillyscoutsmum · 24/10/2009 20:40

Freya is lovely. Kaden....errrmmm... not so much

Prefer Dexter or Callum.

mathanxiety · 24/10/2009 20:47

Love Freya, but not Kaden. I love Callum, Dexter and Michael. How about Michelle as a middle name?

MaggieBruja · 24/10/2009 20:47

What about Callum Aidan, with nn Caden. that is just much better. Kaden very....*&^%

Rossco · 24/10/2009 20:50

Freya is lovely but I'm another one who doesn't like Kaden.

benjysmum · 24/10/2009 20:52

Love Freya, I know a little girl called Freya... cutest thing on two feet ever, all blonde curls and engaging smile.

blametheparents · 24/10/2009 21:18

benjysmum That is def not my Freya that you are describing!
Mine is a feisty little madam, and very determined. She is great though!

pugwash · 24/10/2009 21:22

I like Callum. And Freya Claire

lovemybabyboy · 24/10/2009 22:10

I like Freya and Kaden. I think they are both lovely names.
I also think Freya Kate sounds nice.

DougalDoneGood · 24/10/2009 23:28

I love Freya
Not so keen on Kaden but then I don't think I've heard it before. It could be a grower! I like Michael though.

Middle names;

Freya Martha
Freya Isabel
Freya Imogen
Freya Elizabeth
Freya Mabel
Freya Rose
Freya Jemima
Freya Jessica

tHELLISH · 25/10/2009 01:41

Callum and Dexter both great names

Freya is fab too - do you have a family name you could use as middle name - like with Michael? x

Frrrightattendant · 25/10/2009 07:20

Michael is nice, not keen on the others, sorry. But then it's your baby

LittleMissWorryHead · 25/10/2009 10:00

Freya is lovely. Gorgeous name. Good choice!!

For middle name I would choose something longer.....

You did ask so I have to say - I don't like Kaden. Michael is fab and I love Dexter - so much nicer...

MilkNoPoisonPlease · 25/10/2009 20:42
