Etymology & Historical Origin of the Baby Name Jaydan

Jaydan is mainly a masculine respelling of the ultra-trendy, gender-neutral name Jayden. Jayden is essentially a modern American name invention dating back to the 1990s. Because the name has no basis in etymological origins, it really has no specific meaning. It was more or less coined from the common “jay” prefix combined with the popular “-den” suffix (think Aiden, Brayden, Hayden and Kayden). Not only has Jayden taken America by storm (it was the #4 most popular baby boy’s name in the United States in 2011), but his appeal has crossed borders and oceans. Jayden is a high ranking name in almost every single English speaking nation (not to mention the Netherlands). Due to Jayden’s ϋber-success, the name has given birth to scores of respellings. Jaydan is one such example.
