More info:

Cadan is an English transcription of the Gaelic/Celtic surname Mac Cadáin, which translates to "son of Cadán." The meaning of Cadán is unclear.

Caden's use as a given name in the English-speaking world is mostly unrelated to its historical use as a Gaelic/Celtic surname. Instead, Caden has been used primarily as a variant of other -aden sounding names such as Aidan, Hayden, and Braden. This theory is supported by the fact that half of Caden's overall usage in the last century has been confined to the past five years.
