About Jewel
Just like Flora is for botanicals, Jewel is the generic gemstone name, not used much since the early twentieth century, when it was seen as a symbol of how precious a daughter could be. The French version, Bijou, feels more modern, as do Pearl and Ruby.
Pronounced JOO-ul.
As of October 2026, Jewel ranked #1514 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #198 in 1904.
