History & Origin
Chaden is best read as a modern blend, either Chad with a fashionable -en ending or a Ch- spelling of Caden. Chad itself goes back to the Old English Ceadda, borne by a seventh-century saint. Chaden has no ancient root of its own and, like most such coinages, has always been rare.
It was never common, given to only about twenty boys a year at its peak around 2006, and it stayed rare. A boy named Chaden then is in his late teens today.
