Jesse. Help convince me!

After 2 girls, we're having a boy. I've always loved the name Jesse and DH and I agreed on it as the name. However, MIL refuses to see it as anything but a girls name. She sent us a card saying

"to DH, sayanythingelse, DD and bump (Jessie)".

When we pointed out it's spelt Jesse, she said "I know, like Jessie J, the singer" and awkwardly laughed like she still didn't get it.

It's happened a few times with her and I know the name is currently in the top 100, so it's just her being dim but it's totally putting me off it. Help convince me that it's a nice name and I'm not setting my son up for a life of being called Jessica.
