Kaede was the 7th most popular girls name in Japan in 1996 and the 4th most popular girls name in 1997. It hasn't made the top 10 since.
Kaede was given to 11 girls in America in 2016.
This name is currently 22nd place in Japan for males (source: http://5go.biz/sei/cgi/ninki1.htm).
I've met ONE man whose daughter's name was Kaede (sounds like Kai-day with the ai being phonetic like eye) and it's a very nice name.One thing about anime/manga is you have to be careful not to confuse cartoon with reality because people sometimes make things up for cartoons and use rare names for effect, though some of the names are also fairly common in Japanese. Just be careful how much you base your perspective of Japanese society on manga.
This name is also sometimes used as a masculine name, like the character in the Japanese manga "Slam Dunk", Kaede Rukawa.
