The name is quite popular in Australia. I personally know three Eden's, they're all children.

In the English pronunciation, eeee-den, or eed-n, it fits better for girls. However, in other country's pronunciation, like Hebraic, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese, the pronunciation is EH-den, which sounds way more masculine, but could also be used for girls. It's a pretty name, regardless, even though I prefer the ED-den pronunciation.

I've heard this name for a boy too.

This is my name (I'm a female), and I've never met another Eden in my life! I have, however, heard of other Edens, all of which are females.

The name "Eden" is definitely of masculine, as well as feminine usage, and it's not a very new trend - I personally know two 25 year-old guys named Eden.

My daughter is named Eden but we always receive the comment "for a GIRL?!" when we tell people her name. It makes sense to me that it is feminine, but I know of MANY little boys with this name. It sould be listed also as a possible masculine name because of it growing popularity among boys. (But to me it just sounds girlish, especially if you associate it with the garden of Eden). Sorry boys.
