Cade Origin and Meaning

The name Cade is a boy's name of English origin meaning "round; or, barrel".

Strong, ultramasculine, and modern, Cade shot up the popularity lists around the millennium—it was as high as Number 201 in 2001—along with cousins Caden and Cale, and has drifted along in the middle of the US Top 1000 ever since.

Like Scarlett, Rhett, Ashley, Melanie, and Beau, Cade was worn by a character in Gone With the Wind.

There's a Cade Skywalker in the Star Wars universe, and Keith Carradine named his now-grown son Cade.
