Jacqueline

Jacqueline is a classic and timeless name that exudes elegance and sophistication. It has French roots but ultimately traces back to the Hebrew name Jacob, meaning supplanter. Jacqueline gained a boost in popularity due to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, one of America's most beloved First Ladies. The name has a graceful sound, making it a favorite choice for parents who appreciate a touch of European flair. Jackie is the most common diminutive, though others like Jacque or Lynn also work beautifully. While its popularity saw a peak in the mid-20th century, Jacqueline continues to be a cherished selection for many families.
