Mcaiden
A boy's name of Irish origin with 14 recorded U.S. births.
Meaning & Origin
Only 14 babies have been named Mcaiden in recorded U.S. history. That level of rarity means your child would almost certainly be the only one in their school, their workplace, and most rooms they walk into — a genuinely one-of-a-kind choice.
In the most recent SSA release, Mcaiden ranks #6337 among U.S. boy names — distinctive enough to stand out.
Mcaiden is a boy's baby name of Irish origin, combining the Mc- prefix ('son of') with Aiden — from the Irish Aodhán, a diminutive of Aodh meaning 'fire.' Together it creates a name meaning 'son of the fiery one.'
Mcaiden is rare and inventive, reflecting the American tradition of building new names from Irish surname elements. It carries Celtic heritage with a contemporary, constructed feel.
