Jacquelynne Origin and Meaning

The name Jacquelynne is a girl's name.

Jacquelynne is an elaborate feminine spelling variation of Jacqueline, which itself is the female form of Jacques, the French equivalent of James. Ultimately derived from the Hebrew name Jacob meaning "supplanter" or "holder of the heel," Jacquelynne represents one of many ornate spelling variations that emerged in the mid-20th century. The addition of extra letters and the distinctive "lynne" ending gives the name a more elaborate, personalized feel. While Jacqueline peaked in popularity in the 1960s, Jacquelynne has always remained a less common alternative. The name evokes a sense of classic femininity with a touch of sophistication, appealing to parents who appreciate traditional names with unique spellings.
