Is it permissible to name a newborn "Jady"?
It is preferable for a Muslim to name his son with a good name, such as the names of prophets and companions. The best of these are "Abdullah" and "Abdur-Rahman," as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The most beloved of your names to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, are Abdullah and Abdur-Rahman." There is no objection to naming a son with any name that does not contain a Sharia prohibition. The name "Jadi" means saffron or seeker of bounty, and there is no objection to naming with it.
