Jaquetta is a feminine name with medieval French origins, serving as a diminutive form of Jacques (the French equivalent of James). The name ultimately derives from the Hebrew name Jacob, meaning 'supplanter.' Jaquetta emerged in medieval Europe, particularly in aristocratic families, with notable bearers including Jacquetta of Luxembourg, mother of Elizabeth Woodville (queen consort to Edward IV of England). The name features various spelling variations including Jacquetta and Jaketta. While never extremely common, Jaquetta experienced modest usage in the United States during the mid-to-late 20th century. The name carries an air of nobility and historical elegance, offering a distinctive alternative to more common feminine forms of James such as Jamie or Jamesina.
