First thought is that Aiden is very very very popular, but if you are okay with that so be it. Grayson and Brody are fine, not great, and I don't like Brycen at all.

Not a fan of any but Grayson. None are awful, but Brody makes me think of grody (my last name was similar to Brody and it was a common taunt). I have a student named Brycent and he hates his name, goes by Bryce.
I absolutely hate Aiden. I have NO idea why anyone would purposely choose the #1 name in the US, especially a trendy hot mess one. (#1 and classic, like Jacob or Sophia or whatever, is a different discussion imo.) AND it would rhyme with half of his classmates'. Ugh.
Grayson is nice. Brody is okay. Brycen is ... not good.

I met six babies named Aiden in one day this week. I can also recall nearly a dozen more babies named Aiden born in the last two years. If you're looking forward to your child having the same name as every other child in his class for the rest of his life, go to it. It's a nice name, but it is popular to the point of ubiquity, kind of like Jennifer was in the 80s.
Re: Name Opinions
Is Kaila {Kayla} or {Kyla} pronunciation?

Aiden Michael - Too common. He'll be one of about a dozen Aiden/Adin/Aidan/Jayden/Jaedyn/Jaden/Kaden/Caedyn/Cadens in his class.
Grayson Michael - I like both names.
Brody Michael - Rhymes with grody. Doesn't age very well at all.
Brycen Michael - Doesn't age well. I'm not a fan anyway.Married since 06/19/2004|Anna born 11/19/2006|Charles born 11/1/11

I like Aiden. I know it's popular, but I still like it.
Brody is a second choice. I don't like Grayson or Brycen at all.
no to aiden, and most definitely no to brycen. that's just awful.
however, brody and grayson are adorable.
This!
All of the boy names you mentioned are NMS. "Aiden" is too popular - I know of at least 4 Aidens.
