About Ryden
This trendy-sounding name emerged from the era of Aiden and Jayden and Ryder and Ryker. Many parents may have come to it on their own, but Ryden has ancient roots as a Swedish surname, from the component ryd, meaning "woodland clearing," and the common surname suffix én, a derivative of the Latin enius.
Ryden rose in the late 2010s and is now given to a little under 100 boys each year in the U.S. But beware, one letter different Ryder is given to about 40x as many babies.
Ryden is also given to girls.
