Jordan is possibly a biblical name that means "descend" or "flow down". So Jordan has led itself to being a name used for males or females, but Jordana is strictly for females.
This is just a masculine name that talks about baptisting children and I don’t think it has anything to do with the name Jordan being originally masculine, but I do think it’s more of a masculine name. It could be originally masculine, I take that back!

The name didn't die out in the Middle Ages in the UK; it wasn't common, but there is documented consistent use from the 1400s to now.

The origin is slighly different: it's composed actually of the hebrew words: YARAD (to desend) and DAN (which is the name of the river from which JORDAN River descends).
YARAD + DAN => YARDAN => JORDAN.

YARAD + DAN => YARDAN => JORDAN.
