History & Origin

Caidance respells Cadence, a term from Latin cadentia meaning rhythm or 'a falling.' As Cadence caught on for American girls in the two-thousands, playful spellings like this one branched off. Caidance appears in United States birth records only after 2000.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at its high in the early two-thousands, so a Caidance from that peak is in her early twenties today. It reads as a modern respelling rather than a distinct name.

Did you know? Caidance is one of a cluster of Cadence spellings, from Kadence to Kaydence, that sprang up once the musical word became a fashionable girl's name.
