I like it, but I feel it's probably only popular because it rhymes with Aiden, and is therefore cool. It's one of my PP's. It's a variant transcription of a Japanese mythology character (Raijin), actually. What video game is that from?

My DH wanted to name our son this...Raiden is the Japanese God of Thunder, and it's from the video game Mortal Kombat. His favorite.
I'm kind of glad we didn't, given the now-popularity of Aidan.

I know a guywho loves Mortal Kombat so much that he insisted that his first child must be Raiden no matter what -- and they had a girl. I feel kinda bad for the kid, but, meh, there are worse.

His name is Trevor Lief. =o)
Lief is my DH's mn and his grandfather's mn. I'm not sure why they spell it this way, but Leif is scandinavian for beloved.
He wasn't SO adamant about Raiden but he was dead-set that he was going to pass on his middle name.

I gotta say Trevor, while not my style, is a million times better than Raiden :)Leif is cool. It's my Mormor's (Danish grandma's) friends name. Do you prn. it the same way as Life? That's the way he prn. his name.
