Path or fighter's estate
Paden is a surname-derived name with two primary etymological roots. It is often considered a variant of the English surname Patton, meaning 'fighter's town or estate,' or it may derive from the Old English word 'paed,' meaning 'path.' While rare, it fits the modern trend of using surnames as first names.
