What is 'Jessica' when translated from English to Italian?

Answer 1

Gessica is an Italian equivalent of the English name "Jessica." The feminine proper name originates in "The Merchant of Venice," a play most likely composed between 1594 and 1597 by William Shakespeare (Baptized April 23, 1564 - April 23, 1616), and possibly long before in the Hebrew name יִסְכָּה (Yiskah) for "contemplative" or "observant," by way of the Latinized Jesca. The pronunciation will be "DJES-see-ka" in Pisan Italian.
