Comments for the name Jadon

This is a nice name for a boy. I like this spelling the best.

Jadon Lavik is a Christian music artist.

There is a Yadon in the bible but it doesn't mean 'thankful' whatsoever! Wrong information source.

_The Complete Book of Hebrew Baby Names_ by Smadar Shir Sidi and _Who's Who in the Old Testament_ by Joan Comay both say that Jadon or Yadon means "he will judge".

When I looked it up (probably in a concordance), it said "God has heard", so I'd have to go back and cross check that.

Looks like a kreatyv spyllyng of the "name" Jaden.

It's the other way around. Jayden and the like are kry8iv spellings of this name, or simply people slamming popular sounds together to create a sort of etymological Frankenstein's monster.

I like this name, and the meaning.

This name only looks good spelled like this. Other variations like Jayden and Jaidon look terrible.

Pronounced "yah-DAWN".

I just had a son. Of the ten babies in the maternity ward, three were named Jaden in one spelling or another. Two were boys, one was a girl. Please reconsider naming your child this. You aren't naming a baby, you're naming a future adult. As other reviewers have noted, this (and all the similar -aden names) lack class and sound generic. This name isn't just bland, it's banal.

This name has NOTHING to do with Jaden/Jayden/Jaiden etc. It has a different origin and I'm fairly sure it's pronounced differently than Jayden as well. This is a Biblical name, used in the Old Testament, specifically in Nehemiah 3:7, where Jadon joins Melatiah in making repairs to the Jeshanah Gate. Maybe Melatiah would make a good name?
