Best Answer

The name Jessica was first used in this form by Shakespeare in his play 'The Merchant of Venice', where it belongs to the daughter of Shylock. Shakespeare probably based it on the biblical name ISCAH which would have been spelled Jesca in his time.

Jessica is also sometimes used as a feminine form of JESSE. Jesse means 'God beholds.'

'Jessica' means wealthy and The Lord Beholds.

Gender: Female

Origin: Hebrew
