The -dyn spelling emphasizes the fashionable y-insertion common in late 20th century American names.

Use spread rapidly in the 1990s and 2000s across the United States, Canada, the U.K., and Australia, buoyed by the wider -ayden trend and celebrity visibility (e.g., Jaden Smith; Britney Spears’s son Jayden).
