Draden is of American origin, derived from the German surname 'Drache', which means 'dragon'. It is predominantly used as a male given name in recent years. The name has gained popularity due to its unique sound and its association with strength and power, much like the mythical creature it is named after. It is often spelled with one 'd' but variations include Draden or Draeden.
The name Draden has seen fluctuating popularity over the years, with a notable spike in usage between 2006 and 2010, reaching its peak with 32 births in 2008. However, it seems to have fallen out of favor since then, with fewer than 15 births recorded each year from 2011 onwards. Despite the recent decline, Draden has still been given to a total of 231 babies across these years.
