Eiden, pronounced AY-dən, is a lively twist on the Irish Aodhán, “little fire,” with a wink to the Hebrew Eden, “delight.” Fire and garden—what a duet! The name first flickered in U.S. records with just six babies in 2004, yet by 2024 it warmed over 300 cradles, leaping to rank 625 faster than a salsa dancer’s feet. Its sound is easy, its vibe is bright, a blend of Celtic flame and Latin fiesta. Parents picture a niño who shines with warmth, laughs with sparkle, and turns everyday moments into celebration. For families chasing a modern name that still carries an old-world story, Eiden is small in letters but grande in spirit.
