Jesika

US Popularity Rank: 24780

Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: He sees

Jesika is a girl's name that means "he sees." Although you'll find this Hebrew name, spelled as Jessica, in Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice, its roots can be traced back to the biblical name Iscah, which was spelled as Iesca or Jesca during Shakespeare's time. In the Christian Old Testament and Hebrew Bible, Iscah is briefly mentioned as the daughter of Haran, Abraham's brother, so you can also choose this name as a tie to your faith, blending the ancient appeal of names like Rebekah with the 80s peppiness of Jessica.
