Jersey Origin and Meaning

The name Jersey is a boy's name meaning "Geirr's island".

The New Jersey cities of Camden and Trenton are in, but the name of the state has not caught on to anywhere near the same extent. The origin of the name of the British island of Jersey is not certain, but it may derive from the Norse name Geirr.
