How should I spell this name?

Question

My boyfriend and I are going to name our baby Braden, and although that's the way I like it spelled, I'm concerned it is going to get mispronounced a lot. Do you think it needs to be Brayden? Or would Braden work? Also, any suggestions for middle names would be appreciated! We're trying to go kind of traditional with the middle name, nothing too outrageous! Thanks!

Answer 6

Braden would get pronounced the same way as Brayden.

So it doesn't matter which way you spell it.

Middle name ~

Braden James

Answer 7

I really like Braden spelled just how you like it spelled.

I don't think you should add the y.  I think you/him won't have any problems with people mispronouncing it.  

(I also think to many people are adding y's to names lately, so that influences my answer too.)

Best wishes! :)  Braden is a nice, manly name!

How about:

Braden Ryan

Braden Michael

Braden Alexander

Braden Christopher

Answer 8

Brayden Thomas if your worried it will be mispronounced and Braden Thomas if your okay with it. Whichever spelling you and your boyfriend like better.

Answer 9

I like Braden, but prefer the spelling BRAEDEN.  A good tradtional middle name would be Braden Michael or Braden Scott.

Answer 10

I like it spelled either Braden or Braeden.  The y would make it look too feminine.

Answer 18

The three ways you can spell it are:

Braden

Brayden

Braeden

If you don't want to constantly have to spell it, I would go with Brayden, but they are all very nice! I have a Hayden :o)

Answer 19

I like "Braden" better but it is likely to be mispronounced a lot.  And "Braeden" is too forced.  I think "Brayden" would be best.

For the middle name, I suggest:

Christopher

James

Thomas

Lucas

Cooper

Wesley

Matthew

Answer 20

Brayden is better because Braden could sound like (brad-en).

Answer 21

Braden James

Answer 22

Braden is better.  The Y makes it feminine.

Braden James

Answer 23

the traditional spelling is fine, everyone who knows how to read will get it, and Brayden is way too cutesy IMO.  reminds me of a donkey braying.

the middle name should be one or three syllables or it gets too sing-songy.  braden george for example or braden christopher but not braden stewart

Answer 24

I like Brayden more

Answer 25

I like Braden better without the "y".

What about Braden Michael, Braden Joseph, Braden Andrew?

Answer 26

Brayden would be pronounced the way its supposed to as opposed to braden which would be pronounced as "Brah-Den". The name is very nice though. Hmm...Brayden Lee, Brayden Samuel, Brayden Foster. I'm not good with middle names lol. My sons name is Jeremy Mathew V. Took us forever to choose a middle name. Good luck and congrats!

Answer 27

Bradin. Braden. Brayden. Braydin. I personally like Braydin better.
