What do you think of the name Judd?

I love the name! It’s a medieval Hebrew name derived from Jordan, as in the River Jordan and means “to flow down”. So basically it means River. It’s also my son’s name so I’m biased, lol. In our experience get nothing but positive reactions from it. Usually younger people have never met a Judd before but like it and older people used to know a Judd or have an uncle Judd when they were a child and it brings up happy memories. But It really needs to be a two yes situation when you’re naming your child together though so if it doesn’t feel right to you stand your ground! Maybe find another name that means River? I wanted to name my son River at first and came across Judd and it ended up being perfect.
