Rhyming sibset....

in Baby Names
A girl I'm friends with on Facebook has a toddler named Aidan. She just had another son and named him.... Brayden. My mouth actually dropped open when I read it. Then I thought, no, I must be mistaken, maybe I'm thinking of someone else whose son is Aidan. Nope. Aidan and Brayden. The only way that would be worse is if they were twins.

    They are awful names on their own and the fact that they are siblings is even worse.

    I feel bad that Aidan has gotten wrapped up in this stupid craze.  I hate all the invented spinoff names but at least Aidan is legit.  Rhyming siblings is cutesy enough but it's basically the same name with a prefix.

      I agree. Aidan is the only one I actually like, but I do have a nephew named Aidan. All the other "den" names are god awful. 

    Names with similar sounds doesn't necessarily bother me on siblings, but if it is straight of rhyming like Aidan, Brayden I think it is terrible. I really hate when people do that to twins. When they essentially give them both the same name. It makes cringe and think how unoriginal can you be? I just don't think it's the least bit cute. I feel kind of bad for being so harsh about that, I just feel like kids should have their own name. Not a spin off of their sibling's name.

    Bets on Cayden if there's a third?

    More likely it'll be Kaiden.

    Or Jayden.
