[Opinions] Jordana?
Thoughts on this female name? I see Jordan as masculine/an obvious males name.

I like it but I also like Jordan on a girl.

I like it! I always trip up on the pronunciation though - "Jor-DAN-ah" sounds funny to me (just abrupt in a way, a clunky feminization like Donalda or Frankette), so I say "jor-DAY-na" which is probably totally wrong.

Never heard of Donalda before...
Heard of don, donald, Donovan and dawn
Donalda is new to me.

It's weird, isn't it? There's a Donalda street near where I live.

Not bad at all. I don't love it, but it's unique, feminine, and has good nicknames (Jo, Jory, Jordy, Dan, Dani, Dana, Jorda). Yup, decent name all around.

I think Jordana is very pretty, and much more appealing on a girl than Jordan (or Jordyn), which I agree is very masculine. Jordana is elegant without being prissy. I think Jordana Violet would make a beautiful combo.

jorDAYna? jorDAHna? JORdana? Something else?There was Jordan Baker in The Great Gatsby - definitely female and named, it seems, after two popular cars of the time. But there are male Jordans, some of whom are the victims of kre8iv spelling and go by Geordan. Which would be unlikely for a female, if it really is a merger of George and Jordan.Can't say I enjoy it either way, though there are worse rivers to be named after.

Jordana is nice, and a big improvement on Jordan, which I just find completely unfeminine.

Love it!! It feels a little too, I dunno, exotic and glamorous for me to use in real life though. Unless it was shortened to Jordan...
