Cadao

Warm up that voice and practice your high notes, as little Cadao’s arrival will make you want to sing a joyful song! A masculine name, Cadao has Vietnamese roots, stemming from the elements ca and dao. When combined, these two elements can describe a vocal melody or a species of ray! The Ca Dao is a type of Vietnamese folk song, usually unaccompanied by music. They can be read as poems or sung aloud and often focus on everyday issues and topics. Interestingly, many Ca Dao’s tell stories of the natural world, making Cadao’s second meaning even more fitting! In Vietnamese, the word for “sawfish” is cá đao, perhaps a contender for your little one’s favorite animal!
