    Comment left Aug 06, 2010: "My name is Jesse and I'm of the male variety, I agree with all the people who also get annoyed when asked "Jesse, isn't that a girls name?" I'm proud of my name" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Aug 06, 2010: "My son was born in 1980 and named after his father, Jesus. I have always called him Jesse or Jess. I absolutely love the name. Shortly after he was born a song titled "Jesse", sung by Carly Simon, became very popular. At that time many assumed that is why we called him Jesse. Had nothing to do with it. I feel the name has always suited my son." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Apr 30, 2008: "I married a man with the first and middle names Jesse Herbert. His family called him Herbert to distinguish him from his father (because he was a junior). But among his friends as an adult, he preferred Jesse or Jess. When he'd meet someone for the first time, he'd say I'm Jesse, one of the James brothers! I called him Herb because that is how he introduced himself to me when we first met. Many confusions over the names during our 45 years of marriage." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Dec 31, 2007: "I named my baby boy Jesse, and he is now almost 10 years old. There is only One other boy with that name at his school, and he just transfered last year. People often mis-spell his name also, but thats o.k. we love the name. It is hebrew and it means wealthy. It is also a biblical name. But most of all it just suits him perfectly. JESSE...LOVE IT!"
