History & Origin

Beauden means 'beautiful' and is built on the French-rooted 'beau', the same element behind Beau and Beaumont. The -den ending stretches it into a fuller, more modern given name. It is closely tied to the New Zealand rugby player Beauden Barrett (born 1991), who has done much to make the spelling familiar.

The 'beau' opening keeps a soft French gloss while the -den close gives it a contemporary, masculine finish.
