Meaning: Down-flowing

Help baby go with the flow with the name Jourdan! This gender-neutral name of Hebrew origin means “down-flowing.” Changing and flowing with the current, Jourdan is derived from Jordan, the name of the major river that runs through the Middle East and down into the Dead Sea. This body of water is significant in both the Jewish and Christian religions: the Jewish people crossed this river to get to the promised land, and Jesus was baptized in these same waters. So, if your little water baby is swimming with potential, then Jourdan is a name that will keep them afloat no matter where their boat takes them.
