I love it. Thought about it for DS but didn’t go for it due to the negative connotations.

"You big Jesse". Not just in Scotland.

Is it for a boy or girl?

Maireadd · 01/09/2018 08:20

Love it

OutPinked · 01/09/2018 07:47

I love it

I love it. But I would probably have a think about how heavily "jessie" meaning "sissy" features in the local slang.

I like. Nice and different but not "different"

kaytee87 · 01/09/2018 07:18

Nope. It's an insult in Scotland and possibly some parts of northern England

KingKongNoWrong · 01/09/2018 07:07

I really like it

Quangot · 01/09/2018 06:25

Not keen, sorry.

Great name

Sophronia · 01/09/2018 03:44

I like it

It was my fil’s name - very Old Testament

Very American, but that’s not a criticism. I like that it’s neither too casual nor stuffy, and that it is unlikely to be shortened. I struggle to imagine anyone over the age of 25 called Jesse though...

On balance, not to my taste - personally - but inoffensive. If you love it, use it!

I like it Smile
