Throughout the world, Ordain (Ordain 
, Ordiner 
, บวชชี 
) is a rare predominantly masculine, but scarcely female first name. The given name Ordain is characteristic of Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is a rare masculine name, and Nigeria, where it is an extremely rare gender-neutral name. Much less frequently, Ordain is the last name as well as the forename.
