      Meaning of the first name Jordane

      Origin

      French

      Meaning

      Feminine form of Jordan

      Variations

      Jordana, Jordan, Jordanna
      The name Jordane, originally of French origin, is the feminine variant of the name Jordan. Derived from the Hebrew name Yarden, meaning to flow down or descend, Jordan traditionally refers to the river that runs between the countries of Jordan and Israel. The name became popularized in medieval Europe, particularly in France, as a given name for both males and females.

      Throughout history, the name Jordane has been sporadically utilized, mainly as a feminine alternative to Jordan. In medieval times, it was predominantly found within French-speaking regions where it gained some popularity. However, compared to its masculine counterpart, the feminine form remained relatively less common. This trend continued into modern times, with the name rarely being used as a given name.

      In contemporary usage, the name Jordane is considered somewhat uncommon. It continues to be used primarily as a feminine name and preserves its French origin. Although its popularity has remained modest, the name Jordane can still be found in diverse parts of the world, typically among French-speaking communities. While generally less well-known than the more traditional variants of Jordan, Jordane remains a unique and distinctive choice for parents seeking a feminine form of the name that is rooted in French history.
