I give up @#$%#$%! Riddle for a baby name- please help me solve this!

[cstraub]

Please help me guess my cousins baby name. The baby will be born Tuesday (Valentine's day). They have been sending clues as to what the baby's name will be.

Here are the clues:

it has five letters

two are volwels

4 of the 5 letters are in the first five letters of the alphabet (ABCDE)

it is Welsh in orgin

it has no biblical connections that they know of

it has two letters in common with the middle name they have chosen (Jacob)

none of the letters repeat

Caden?

 

[cstraub]

That's what I was thinking too!
Just came to me. Is it welsh in orgin though? I'll check.

 

[cstraub]

Says on the internet that it is American in orgin.

 

[AC7179]

Yeah, I looked it up too---American. Hmmm. Maybe the book she has says Welsh? I'll keep thinking.

It is Welsh. Caden Jacob - nice ring to it!

Cadel..Means small battle; spirit of the battle

I found it on a Welsh baby name site...

edited - never mind, middle name is Jacob...

I think Caden, too. I found it listed with a Welsh origin.

I just found it on another site and it is Welsh. It means spirit of battle.

I'll email them now and see if that's right.

Thanks!

Caleb?
But that is Biblical.

 

[Daisy Duck 5]

I was thinking Reece but that has three vowels. Let us know when you find out.

 

[mom2grace]

Caleb?
But that is Biblical.

I vote Caleb as well.

 

[Tigger&Belle]

I vote Caleb as well.

But that has three letters in common with Jacob.

I bet it's Caden

Did you find out? I like the name Caden.

 

[cstraub]

It is Caden Jacob! So excited to have the name figured out. So far there are only two people that know other than the parents!! My DH is still trying to guess. He guessed Caleb. I'm sure he'll figure it out by tonight.

Thanks for all the help.

I really loved this idea they came up with. The riddle was so fun and came to us over several days. Tom will be the last day of clues but I've already guessed it.

It's fun knowing something before everyone else!
