Baby will always know they’re your little buddy with this boy’s name of Arabic, Scottish, and Irish origin. Kadin, which is a form of Kaden and diminutive of Caden, means "companion" or “friend,” and is a thoughtful way to encourage your little one to be a friend to everyone they meet. It stems from the Irish and Scottish Gaelic surname Mac Cadáin, translating to “son of Cadán,” which itself is derived from the Old Irish cath and means “battle.” It also offers a more unique version of the always popular and similar-sounding Brayden and Jayden family of names.
