Aidan or Aiden?

[shirlls]

So, we have decided on the name Aiden/Aidan but we can't agree on the spelling. OH prefers Aiden and I constantly swing between the two

What spelling do you prefer? (If it helps, the middle names are James William, and the surname is Bradley)

My son is Aidan, hubby wanted to spell it "aiden" but after much research I found the following:

Aidan has been around since 601 where as Aiden first started in 1951 (wiki search will tell you the same). The name is suppose to be spelt with with an A the E is because of the lazy English language. This was a big thing to hubby so we went with Aidan (everyone spells it wrong lol).

I only did this research as I loved Aidan when hubby first mentioned it and then he spelt it Aiden and it completely changed the name for me... Hubby is very into spelling names how they should be spelt and this worked in my favor
