Jordena Origin and Meaning

The name Jordena is a girl's name.

Jordena is a feminine name that appears to be a creative elaboration of Jordan, which comes from the Hebrew name for the Jordan River. The original name carries the meaning 'flowing down' or 'descend.' Jordena adds a distinctly feminine ending to create a more elaborate version of the name. While Jordan has been used for both genders, Jordena is exclusively feminine. The name emerged in the latter part of the 20th century when parents began seeking variations of traditional names with unique endings. Jordena remains relatively uncommon, making it an attractive option for parents who appreciate the familiar sound of Jordan but desire something more distinctive and unmistakably feminine for their daughter.
