Giordana is a feminine name for teaching baby about life's ebb and flow. It's an Italian respelling of Jordan and Hebrew yarden, meaning "to flow down" or "descend." Baby can draw power from Israel's River Jordan, which flows towards the Dead Sea. The river is where John the Baptist famously baptized Jesus and is considered holy among Christians and Jews. With this ancient name, baby Giordana will remain faithful and look to their pals for a helping hand!
