I take baby names very seriously.

There are two steps parents can take with regard to their newborns, the taking of which helps 99% of the time and the omission of which hurts 99% of the time.

First is reading aloud to the child.

Second is giving the child a normal, non-made-up, no-bad-future-guaranteeing name. Jaden, Caden, Braden, Kayleigh, Nevaeh, whatever your friends are naming their babies, and anything beginning with La that is immediately followed by a capital letter or an apostrophe - shun them all.

Braden is an Irish/Gaelic origin name, just like the name Aiden is.

It's NOT made up.

When you come from a nearly 100% Irish family like my brother and I do, those names aren't bad at all.
