Jessicka Origin and Meaning

The name Jessicka is a girl's name.

Jessicka is a creative spelling variant of Jessica, which itself derives from the Hebrew name Yiskah, meaning 'to behold' or 'God beholds.' The alternative spelling with 'ck' instead of 'c' gives the name a more distinctive, edgy quality while maintaining the familiar pronunciation. Jessica rose to extraordinary popularity in the English-speaking world during the 1980s and 1990s, partly due to characters in Shakespeare's 'The Merchant of Venice' and various pop culture references. Jessicka offers a way to stand out from the many Jessicas while keeping the name's essential character. This spelling variation gained some recognition through Jessicka Addams (born Jessica Fodera), the lead vocalist of American rock band Jack Off Jill. The name projects a slightly rebellious, individualistic spirit while remaining recognizably connected to its more traditional counterpart.
