This is a video of 4 boys named [name]Brayden[/name] in the same school, each with a different spelling. That must be fun to keep track of. It is called “[name]One[/name] name, 4 spellings”
Of course that reminded me of this ad from a few years ago:

And these remind me of the pro hockey game I saw - featuring [name]Brayden[/name], [name]Braydon[/name] and [name]Braden[/name], who had to be over 18!
I was at my eight-year-old cousin’s baseball game once and noticed a similar phenomenon. There were team banners hanging up on the fences with team names and the names of all the players (all in the 10 and under age range). I couldn’t believe the number of “rhymes with [name]Aidan[/name]” names I saw. [name]One[/name] team had a [name]Brayden[/name], a [name]Kaden[/name], and an [name]Aiden[/name]. I can’t wait for these names to go away. They already sound dated to me.
Agree with southern.maple, these names are going to be dated for sure. I’d much prefer to meet a little [name]Brandon[/name] than [name]Brayden[/name]/[name]Jayden[/name]/[name]Zayden[/name]. Or at least people would stop using these names for girls:mad:
A perfect example of why parents should avoid these names like the plague.
I honestly do not see an issue with the aden names. When I grew-up there were Johns and Jennifers around each corner. I still know many, many Johns and Jennifers (children). Though I personally would not use [name]Jennifer[/name], was on the fence about [name]John[/name], they are both decent names. There is in actuality nothing wrong with [name]Aiden[/name], [name]Caden[/name], [name]Braden[/name]. All are nice, handsome boy names. I am speaking as a mother that is in her 40s (42). I feel it is very important that parents choose names that are special and meaningful for them. And, no, I do not have a child with an aden name. Though [name]Caden[/name] was very high on my list.
