Jerrine is English in Origin.

Jerrine is an English feminine given name, formed by attaching the French-derived suffix -ine to Jerri/Jerry. These are nicknames for Geraldine (itself from Gerald, Germanic ger “spear” + wald “rule/power”) and sometimes for Jeremy, from Hebrew Jeremiah “Yahweh will exalt.” Thus Jerrine commonly carries the meaning “spear ruler,” with a secondary reading “God will raise” when linked to Jeremy.

Coined and circulated mainly in the United States, the name appears sporadically in 20th‑century records, peaking around the mid-century vogue for tailored, nickname-based girls’ names. Use today is rare, lending it a vintage, offbeat charm. Variant spellings and short forms include Jeri, Jerri, Jerrie, Jerry, Jerine, Jerene, Jerrene, and Gerrine; related longer forms are Geraldine, Jerilyn, and Jeralyn. The blend-like structure makes Jerrine flexible for families honoring a Gerald, Gerard, or Jeremy while seeking a feminine twist.
