Adden

Adden carries a gentle spark in its every syllable. Drawn from the Irish Gaelic Aodhán, meaning “little fire,” it instantly warms hearts—much like a row of diyas lighting up Diwali night. Though still rare in the U.S., with a handful of boys named Adden each year and a steady spot in the top 900 or so since the mid-2000s, it feels like a hidden gem waiting to shine. Parents love its crisp two-syllable punch and the way it rolls off the tongue: AD-en. In India, where storytelling flows as freely as monsoon rain, Adden inspires tales of ambition, bright minds and adventurous spirits. It’s the kind of name that whispers, “Go on, kindle your dreams,” while leaving plenty of room for a lifetime of discoveries.
