Cady

Meaning of Cady

With a breezy lilt like a flamenco guitar riff and a heartbeat all its own, Cady sashays onto the baby-name stage as a spirited choice for girls. Born from the Latin cadentia—meaning “rhythm” or “flow”—it first twirled out of Cadence and soon found its own spotlight, sparkling with warmth and a dash of rebel flair. Imagine little Cady chasing fireflies through a sun-drenched plaza, each laugh a musical note bouncing off whitewashed walls—that’s the playful magic this name brings. Still rare enough to feel like a secret whispered down cobblestone streets (it ranked #936 in the U.S. in 2024 with just 14 new Cadys), it’s carving a path full of charm, creativity and that irresistible Latin zest. Whether you’re drawn to its rhythmic roots or its lively, one-of-a-kind spirit, Cady is ready to dance into your family’s story.
