Very lovely. Reminds me of a wooded glade.

Not a fan.

I prefer just Jessie.

I'd prefer Jessica or Jasmine, both of which are lovely

Far too much. Jessamy is a boy's name too.

I Google it and it's a plant so I guess it's a name , it's also a variant of jasmine according to google

It's not uncommon as a first name in Scotland, but heard it more often as a surname.

Woman at work was called this and every morning when I saw her I started singing that song 'when Jesamine goes, a part of me knows, I'm not really living...'

Ignore the ignorant people who say it's made up, OP. It's a lovely, underused classic name.

I liked it until my DH mentioned it rhymes with 'specimen'. Jessamy is a nice alternative.
