Jacqui Katona is an Aboriginal Australian woman who led the campaign to stop the Jabiluka uranium mine in the Northern Territory. In 1998 the Mirrar Aboriginal people, together with environmental groups, used peaceful on-site civil disobedience to create one of the largest blockades in Australia's history. Katona won the 1999 U.S. Goldman Environmental Prize, with Yvonne Margarula, in recognition of efforts to protect their country and culture against uranium mining.
Jacqueline "Jacqui" Dankworth, MBE, is a British jazz singer. She is the daughter of jazz singer Cleo Laine and musician John Dankworth.
Jacqui is one of the protagonists of the Neal Shusterman book Dry. She starts off the book as a dangerous "wild card" sort of character, but starts to gain some compassion and humanity by the end.
I had a friend whose name was Jacqui, and was pronounced juh-KIE. She often got her name mispronounced as Jackie.
My Grandfather, who died when my dad was 13 was French and his name was Jacques. I was the first grandchild and therefore I was named Jacqui in honor of him. I love my name.
In French Jacky is a very common nickname for the male name Jacques (Jacob/James). Jacqui could be another transcription of Jacky or Jackie but it's more used for Jacqueline, the female form.
Sorry, but this name looks like an ugly misspelling of Jackie.
I think it would make more sense to use this Jacqui spelling as a nickname for Jacqueline. I don't understand why people use spellings like Jackie, Jacki and (heaven forbid) Jakki, when there is no "k" in the original name.
This spelling actually makes more sense if your name is spelled Jacqueline. But I don't really like Jacqui or Jacqueline. Too harsh and just has too many elements. I mean a Ja- sound, a qui, and an eline. Too much!
No offence to anyone, but I really don't like the name Jacqui. When I hear this name I think of my grandparents old dog! Sorry it's just my opinion!
