Jaicob Origin and Meaning

The name Jaicob is a boy's name.

Jaicob is a modern variant spelling of the traditional Hebrew name Jacob, which means 'supplanter' or 'holder of the heel,' referencing the biblical story of Jacob's birth. This creative spelling maintains the pronunciation of the original while offering a distinctive written form. Jaicob represents the contemporary trend of personalizing traditional names with unique spellings. While much less common than Jacob (which has been among the most popular boys' names for decades), Jaicob offers parents a way to honor traditional naming practices while providing their son with a more distinctive identity. The name carries the same rich biblical heritage as its traditional counterpart but with a modern twist that reflects 21st-century naming trends.
