smashflowers · April 2011

My husband wants his middle name to mean something (be after someone important to us)...

so his favorites are.

Aiden Spencer

Aiden Chad

I want something that's just cute, my ideas are.

Aiden Jack

Aiden Noah

What are YOUR ideas??

I love Aiden Spencer. If I were to pick a middle name I would say Aiden Scott.

I like it spelled -an not -en. I think that's the traditional spelling -an.

Aidan James

Aidan Thomas

Aidan Patrick

Aidan Michael

Aidan Joseph

I like both Aiden and Noah but I'm not sure I'd use them together. They're both incredibly popular names so I'd go for more of a unique mn.

I think you should use one that means something. I like Spencer better.

I also prefer Aidan. Aiden appears to be more common but I can't help but think it's misspelled when I see it. (So does my browser, for what that's worth - it's underlining Aiden but not Aidan.) Aidan is a good old saint's name; Aiden is trying to fit in with Brayden, Caden, and Jayden.

That said, I agree with PP who said that you should give him a more unique middle name if you're going with a popular first name. And I like middle names that honor beloved family members or friends. So I support your DH's choices, especially Spencer, which flows nicely with Aidan or Aiden or however you choose to spell it.

I ditto what pp's have said about preferring the Aidan spelling.

FYI: the Aiden spelling is how the character from Sex in the City spelled it who I believe was named after a porn star, Aiden Shaw, thanks to the writers of the show. So whenever I see the Aiden spelling this is what it reminds me of.

mn ideas:

Luke, George, James, Sean, Henry, Vincent, Phillip, Robert, Samuel, William, Conor, Daniel, Lucas, John, Thomas, Rhys.

Aidan Spencer is my favorite. Since you are going with a super trendy fn, using a family name that has meaning to your DH and his family seems to make the name a bit more unique and personal.

Also, Aidan Noah just sounds weird to me. Say it out loud, fast. The two "n" sounds of Aidan and Noah run together.

I prefer names with some kind of meaning behind them. I like Aidan Spencer the best.

I think middle names should have a special meaning. I like Spencer the best.

My sons name is Aidan Gregory Malcolm then our last name.

I like Aidan Spencer too. I'm a big fan of names that mean something. Aidan Noah's not too bad, but I agree that there's too much concentrated popularity in that name. Aidan Jack just doesn't seem to flow properly, and Jack's super popular right now too.
