I like Braden, but I prefer the spelling to be this way: Brayden or Braeden.
The other way looks more like BRAD-en to me instead of getting that long 'a' sound that really makes the name.

Good choices though!

My vote went to Callum, but another thought for you, I have a friend who just named her DS Brenner, I like it much more than Brennan.

I voted for Braden, but I prefer 'Braeden' for the spelling. When I have my first son, his name will be either Brandon or Braeden. Great choices!

I'm having a hard time voting, so I thought I'd just share my comments on each name:


Braden: I know this one seems to appeal to a lot of the others, but it sounds like a name for a dog to me.


Brice: I agree-- this is a GREAT name...but I like it spelled Bryce.


Brennan: I like this one a lot. However, I think it is a little "soft" sounding which might make it appear feminine, or as though it's one of those boys-name-as-girls-name things. It kind of reminds me of Shannon and Rhiannon, as well as Brynn and Brenna. Maybe changing the spelling to Brennen?


Brendan: This one is nice...not overly used yet kind of classic. :-)


Caeden: not really a fan of this one.


Caleb: like it a lot!


Callum: it's okay, not a favorite.


Alex: love it, but as a nn for Alexander, or even something like Alexandros. It's a little common, but still a very nice name (Alex, I mean, lol).


Quinn: I've seen this being used for girls. I like it as a mn for a girl, but not a fn. If you like it...Quentin or even Quinnton might seem a little more masculine.


Mitchell: this isn't a favorite of mine, but yet I think it has a certain charm that I like a lot! I think it's not overused, but yet isn't unheard of, which makes it really nice. It's hard for me to picture a baby with this name, but it is one that he can grow into very well! :-)


Good luck to you!

I chose Brennan, which is one of my sons name and I also would have chosen Braden which is my other sons name but i like the other spellings of braden like Brayden, braeden, braidyn (my son), or braiden...braden looks like BRAD-EN to me. But those are my two favorites
