Eden Name Meaning

We all know that Eden refers to the Biblical place known as the Garden of Eden. Religiously, it is the utopian paradise where God put the first human beings that He created (Adam and Eve). Adam and Eve lived in this garden until they made a mistake and ate from the forbidden fruit.

In Hebrew, Eden means the “garden of God” or “place of pleasure, delight.” Some others suggest that it comes from ancient Aramaic and therefore means “fruitful, well-watered”. All of these potential sources are perfectly compatible with our perception of Eden as a place in heaven. But do we know where Eden is located? According to the Book of Ezekiel, the ancient Garden of Eden was located in modern day Lebanon. Another theory suggest that Eden is located in modern-day Iraq, near where the Tigris and Euphrates rivers meet in. It is safe to say that nobody knows for sure where Eden is located. As a name, Eden is a modern coinage which is mostly used in the United States. It is considered a unisex name which can be used for both boys and girls. Although, it is more common among girls.

My one year old little girl is called Eden June. I think its a unisex name(I know a man called Eden), but its more feminine than masculine in my opinion. I can't beli've some people think It's a trashy name, I think It's beautiful and sounds great! Eden may not be entirely unique, but It's still fairly uncommon. My Eden is unlikely to sit next to another Eden when she goes to school one day!!

My name is Eden and I'm male in my teens, not once have any of my friends questioned my name about it being a girls name and you can'tell just from the way it is pronounced that it is a male name. It'sounds like aiden which everyone mistakes my name as, i find it hard to beli've that people find it to be a more "female" name. It is no doubt a male name, just Aden replaced with an 'E'.

My son's name is Eden. Actually, he was named after his maternal grandmother's maiden name, Edun, but that didn't sound as good to us so we tweaked it. I just checked this website. Since 1880 a total of 229 boys in the US have been named Eden, and 13,118 girls. But the big use of the name picked up only in the last few decades. I wonder why, exactly, people think "Eden" is a feminine name. It didn't sound feminine to me when we picked it. As I recall, there were two people in the Garden of Eden, one of each gender. Garden, growth and fertility may all bias people to thinking this is a girl's name only. I hope it can be both, and my son will not be teased when he gets older.

My mother told me that'she chose my name because it meant "all things feminine and beautiful".

Like many of the Edens' above, I really disliked this name as a child. I even asked my mom if I could change it to Edith, as that's everyone thought it was anyway. There have been studies done on people with unique names and we generally say the'same thing: that we hated the name as children and love it as adults. And I'm no different. I think Eden is the most beautiful name to own. I'm delighted to hear the countless comments on It's beauty and uniqueness. I'make this names what it is, and I'm very lucky to have it.

My son Eden Gabriel is now 16 months old and my wife and I always loved the name. Below is a little piece I found about the name Eden.... "It is traditionally considered to be a masculine baby name. Its bearers are remarkable for their purposefulness, clarity and certainty of their plans as well as their adherence to one idea and one credo. They are strong characters, stubborn and sometimes belligerent. Quite often, they are individualists and sometimes even egotists. Self-confidence, intellectual curiosity, vigour and aspiration for leadership - these are their features".

I am so pleased to see that others like the name Edyn too. I came up with the idea to change the way to spell Eden, as I've never seen the spelling Edyn before. Im also pleased that people also see Edyn as a girls name, because every time I mentioned liking the name Edyn for a girl, people would say its very much a boys name! I consider it to be for either sex, but it is a very pretty name.

Named our first child (a girl) this in 2017, unaware it ranked at all in popularity. i've only ever met one other person with the name, and that was after our Eden was born. When people ask her name, the reply is without exception along the lines of "what a pretty/great/beautiful name." We have yet to see what kind of person she'll be, but as a baby/toddler'she's been very good, easy, and tremendously good-natured. A real delight!

Our daughter (expected August 2020) will be Eden Renee. i've known it was "her" since early in the pregnancy and It'still strikes me as beautiful and unique each time I say it. Renee is my best friend's middle name and will turn the meaning of our daughter's name to 'paradise reborn'-- nothing slight about that.

my daugthter is named Eden, which didnt go down too well with the oldies at first, as it is very unusual and a lot of people have never met any Edens before. They have slowly warmed to it and you know it is good to stand out a bit from the crowd. I do like it for a boys name but prefer it used for a girl. time will tell if it causes any problems for her but but i dont think it will as It'sounds sweet.

This is my sister's name and I think it is really pretty! However, people always spell her name wrong like: Karena, Carina, Corrina, Kirina, and more!

Clearly the right way to pronounce Eden is E Den. As a woman who cannot have babies I will miss not having a daughter and naming her Eden Grace. To all Mothe's' blessed with new babies - I say enjoy giving your baby a truely gorgeous name like Eden.

My birthday is in 1985, and was given'the name Eden. Up until recently I hadn't really come across too many othe's that'share my name. It does seem too have gotten quite popular, which does not surprise me, as it is a beautiful name that evokes images of perfect grace... I am female, and growing up with Eden was something I have grown to love.

My name is Eden, and while I didn't care for it growing up, i've grown to love it. It's unique, not THAT difficult to spell or pronounce, and I get lots of comments on what a nice name it is. i've met several other Edens (including a man), but i've never met an Eden older than me, though. I was named in the 70's.

People pronounce my name right. They spell it wrong, some people spell it like this "Edan" but my name is spelled "Eden". The correct way to say this name is eden. No i don't meet any othe's with the'same name.

I noticed on the chart that in the US since 1997 over 11,000 girls had been named Eden but no boys had been. I named my son Eden. He was born on June 16 2017 here in Australia. I came across the name when I was reading about an Australian movie called The Proposition and one of the male characters was called Eden. However, lately i've been a bit worried that the name might be a bit too effeminate for a boy and that he might be embarrassed to introduce himself to other boys when he's in his teens. I guess he could shorten it to Ed if he felt the need to butch it up a bit. Anyhow I like the name but I don't how much my son will like it as he grows up.

This is my name (Kahlil) and the way I tell people how to pronounce it is to say the Kah part like the cu in cup and the lil part is like eel with an l stuck on the front of it. It is always spelled wrong and said wrong. I have never met anyone with the'same name, but I hear of male athletes with the name. I am a female with this name and have never heard of another female with the name.

i've had mixed feelings about my name my whole life...didn't mind it as a child (didn't know it wasn't normal), went back and forth through school, and now, as an adult, don't mind it at all. Usually I get very positive comments about it when people read it on a credit card or drivers' license--most comment that It's beautiful. But I frequently have to clarify to people when introduced--they often mistake it for Edith, Eva, or even Erin. And I can't even begin to count how many times i've heard, "Oh, like the garden❤️" and "So where's Adam❤️" Clever, eh❤️

My names Eden and I love it. Whoever'said It's out of the bible, You're wrong. It's a Hebrew name and It's beautiful for both boys and girls. For girls It'sounds so beautiful like an old name. It's like a name for someone with an old soul. It's just so amazing I can't even comprehend it lol. I'm Jewish but i've heard a lot of people from Israel have the name Eden.

My name is Eden and I am 21 (born in 2000). I hated it growing up and even went by my middle name for a while in my early teens but I love it now. I am a girl and have only ever heard of/met one other girl called Eden. Most Edens that I am aware of are male, though it is a fairly uncommon name anyway. I think it works well for both sexes. I have never had anyone have trouble pronouncing it though when I introduce myself I often get asked "Edith❤️". My nickname is Edy (pronounced Edie - I often get people mispronouncing this one). My mum decided to name me Eden after reading about Groucho Marx's wife who was also named Eden.

Our little girl is called Eden and was choosen on the grounds that we got a book from the library having failed to find a name we both liked. (three children on.) The book opened and we were both independantly imediatly captured by the name thst means perfection. When our little girl came along it was perfection. (we already had two boys!) Hardly a day goes by when I don't think how special her name is (she is seven now)

My name is Eden (like many above ^^), and I'm a 23 years old female. Since I'm from Israel (and boy is it popular here! Both boys and girls) we actually pronounce the name a bit differnetly, I beli've. We say ed-en; we pronounce the first "e" the'same way as the "e" in "elephant". It does sound a bit weird to a native English spaker, I suppose, but hey, It's the original pronounciation! :P
