View source for Jordan

'''Jordan''' is Angelina's middle name, not her last name (or family name), which is [[Astar]]. Before she became famous, Angelina {{assumption|regularly}} went by the name Jordan. She is still called that by her family.

== Origin ==

The name Jordan comes from the {{w|Jordan River}} (also known as the River Jordan) in the {{w|Middle East}}.<ref name="river">{{ytv|2AXxr5ccuwE|*NEW* Angelina Jordan by the river Jordan #angelinajordan #angelinajordana #reaction #travel #new|cn=H&nbsp;S|accessed=2024-06-20}}</ref>

== Use ==

Angelina was called Jordan a lot when she was younger. Several YouTube videos of her posted in mid-2013, well before her audition for ''[[Norske Talenter]]'', use only the name Jordan in their titles, including {{ytv|XiopukXmbmM|Jordan superstar}} and {{ytv|tJKeJQFZ-Gw|Jordan superstar!}}, posted by [[sara slatmann]], and {{ytv|vtLGup18C1o|jordan superstar}}, {{ytv|_EUOGc8PtOk|jordan superstar}}, and {{ytv|tDCtGNj3Owk|jordan essuperstar}} (the last two of which now have different titles), posted by [[Hanne Tinderholt]]. One video posted by [[Martin Toft]] on {{d|2013-12-03}} is titled simply {{ytv|mM_a68MdydU|Jordan}}.

In a {{fbl|MeryZamaniArt/photos/a.10151534742407466/10151777979572466|2013-12-13 Facebook post by Mery Zamani}}, Angelina is referred to as "the singer Jordan Astar". Sara also posted a YouTube video on {{d|2014-02-06}} called {{ytv|r5GzS25fziY|Jordan astar}}.

After her [[Norske Talenter audition|"Gloomy Sunday" audition for ''Norske Talenter'']], in the celebrations backstage, {{ytv|d3gSho9yf88|a woman can be heard calling out, "Jordan!"|t=6m16s}}.

Angelina is still called Jordan by her mother<ref name="river" /> and sister.<ref>{{ytv|93lkb50xw5Y|Excerpt from Juliette Livestream; Juliette sings her song with Angelina Jordan on the piano.|cn=Maineology|accessed=2024-06-20}} (In particular, see 44 and 59 seconds into the video.)</ref>

== Pet bird ==

When she was very young, Angelina had a pet bird that was named Jordan.<ref>{{ytv|rWlvRl70DE8|Angelina Jordan with one of her birds called Jordan it's very very funny and super cute|cn=Angelina Jordan Fanclub Mosarz|accessed=2024-06-20}}</ref><!-- I think she had more than one bird with the same name, but I haven't looked for the source for this -->
