Jessine

Jessine is a relatively uncommon given name, typically feminine. It is often considered a variant of Jessica or Jessie. The origin is believed to be Hebrew, derived from the name "Iscah" (יִסְכָּה), found in the Old Testament, which may mean "to behold" or "foresight."

The name gained popularity in the latter half of the 20th century, likely due to the success of the name Jessica. While less common than its root name, Jessine presents a slightly different and less frequently encountered alternative. It shares the common diminutive "Jess" with Jessica and Jessie.

Variations in spelling may include Jessina or Jessin. The use of Jessine is observed in various English-speaking countries, although its prevalence is not substantial compared to more popular names.
