Jacklyn "Jackie" Trad is an Australian former politician. She was Deputy Premier of Queensland from 2015 to 2020, Treasurer of Queensland from 2017 to 2020 and represented the Electoral district of South Brisbane for the Labor Party from April 2012 to October 2020.
This spelling really ruins the elegant and sophisticated air that the almost stuck up-sounding Jacqueline has, but an elitist name is always better than a trashy name. To be fair, this name will not be pronounced wrong, and the ''Jacque'' in Jacqueline is also a masculine part, like Jack is in Jacklyn, but well, the original name is French anyway, so there's a difference of some kind, right?
Jacklyn is my name and it has served me well. I was named after my father, Jack and my mom's brother, Lyn. So you see, there can be more than just not knowing how to spell in chosing a various spelling for a name.
What a terrible thing to do to the beautiful, dignified, elegant Jacqueline! Something tells me that whomever chose this name did not even pass spelling in school.
Well, I just find it annoying that no one can spell properly! You see, this is my best friend's name, except she spells it Jackilyn. I note that that particular spelling is not listed, so I thought I'd point it out on the closest alternative.
