Haydn William Bunton (1911 – 1955) was an Australian rules footballer who represented Fitzroy in the Victorian Football League (VFL), Subiaco in the West Australian Football League (WAFL), and Port Adelaide in the South Australian National Football League (SANFL) during the 1930s and 1940s.
Bunton is the only footballer to have won the Brownlow Medal and the Sandover Medal three times each. He is one of only four footballers to have won the Brownlow three times (the others being Ian Stewart, Dick Reynolds and Bob Skilton), and one of only five footballers to have won the Sandover at least three times (the others being Bill Walker, who won it four times; and Barry Cable, Graham Farmer and Merv McIntosh, who each won it three times). Bunton is also the only player to have averaged one Brownlow vote per game over his career, averaging 1.04 votes per game.
Like cricketer Don Bradman and the racehorse Phar Lap, Bunton was a sporting champion who made life bearable for the Australian public during the dark days of the Great Depression. A brilliant runner and ball-winner, he was regarded by some historians and observers of Australian rules as its greatest-ever player.

I am named Haydn (I am a he), as well as I am a Christian. I do not like what my name means, but I like it because it is different and yet somewhat popular and I like Joseph Haydn's music. But my name is pronounced HAY-din

The person below me can capitalize all the random words they want, but this is not a variant of Hayden and they do not have the same pronunciation. This is pronounced High-den. First syllable like “Hi, how are you?”.

I like the name for a boy, it's unusual but a classic. Much better than Aiden.

Music is probably the biggest part of my life, and I would love to honor one of the most famous composers by using this name. It is pronounced HIE-din. I think it could work, especially with the trendiness of Hayden and names similar.

This name is cool. I like it waaaaayyy better than Hayden. I think it's because of the unusual ending...

Yuck. The -dn just looks so strange.

This is even worse than Hayden. I don't know what I'd do if the tryndies started naming their kids Jaydn, Braydn, Caydn...

I know one person with his name, and she's a girl and pronounces it just like Hayden. I prefer Hayden over Haydn, anyway.

Oh, I'm glad I'm not the only one who says HY-den. I love Haydn, but I would only ever use it as a middle as it would be mispronounced as HAY-den all the time.

This is not pronounced like Hayden, this is a name in itself. It is a surname of my favorite composer, and it is pronounced HIGH-den.

I wish it didn't mean "heathen", as a Catholic I could never use it even though it sounds great.

I thought that this was a variant or mis-spelling of Hayden, but it's actually its own name, meaning 'heathen'. Cool.
