Re: Jessie
in reply to a message by Lily
I've always liked it, in a GP way*. There are a few Victorian Jessies in my extended family tree, and they're all just Jessie - not Jessica, which wasn't really used then. I don't like Jessica much either. I've never met a Jessie, but given the popularity of -ie names atm, it wouldn't be out of place.
*It is sort of a slang term for a wuss in parts of the UK ("ooh, you big jessie"). Not a problem for you though!
