National Jayden Day – November 1, 2024

National Jayden Day falls on November 1 to celebrate and appreciate all the Jaydens all over the world. The name Jayden is both masculine and feminine, which was not well known until the 1990s since it is said to be of modern invention — a combination of the ‘jay’ sound and the ‘-den’ suffix. Although it’s a unisex name, Jayden is most commonly used on males. There are alternative spellings of the name Jayden, such as Jadon, Jaden, Jaeden, Jaedin, and Jaidan. In 2011, the popularity of Jayden peaked at number four in the United States.
