Kaidin

Kaidin is a modern masculine name with possible origins as a variant of Caden, Kaden, or Kaiden. These names derived from a surname meaning "companion" or "fighter" in Old English, or may be related to the Arabic name Khadin meaning "friend" or "companion." Kaidin features a distinctive spelling that incorporates the popular "aid" sound with the trendy "in" ending. The name gained some popularity in the United States during the early 2000s as part of the trend toward names with the -ayden/-aiden sound. Parents often choose Kaidin for its contemporary feel and strong phonetic appeal, while still being somewhat less common than similar variants.

Kaidin is also given to girls.
