Adan Origin and Meaning

The name Adan is a girl's name.

Adan as a feminine name represents an uncommon gender crossover from its more traditional use as a masculine name. The masculine Adan has Hebrew origins as a variation of Adam, meaning 'earth' or 'man,' and is particularly popular in Spanish-speaking countries. As a feminine choice, Adan offers a strong, concise sound with biblical connections. This gender-neutral application reflects the modern trend of adapting traditionally male names for girls. The simplicity of Adan—its two balanced syllables and clean ending—gives it a contemporary feel despite its ancient roots. Though rare for girls, Adan provides an alternative to feminine forms like Adana or Adina.
