What is the meaning of the name Jesica ?

The baby name Jesica is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈdʒɛsɪkə/ (JESS-ih-kah).

Jesica is in Origin.

Jesica is a streamlined spelling of Jessica, the Shakespearean given name introduced in The Merchant of Venice. Jessica itself likely traces to the Hebrew Yiskah (Iscah), "to behold" or "foresight," evoking vision and perceptiveness. While the double-s form remains dominant in English, Jesica preserves the same pronunciation and meaning, appealing to parents who favor a sleeker, modern look.

Use of Jesica appears from the late 20th century in the United States and across Latin America, where simplified orthography is common. Related forms include Jessica, Jéssica/Jésica (Spanish and Portuguese), Yesica/Yésica (Spanish), Jesika and Jessika (Central and Northern Europe). Common nicknames are Jes, Jess, Jessi/Jessie, and Jessa. The name peaked in popularity - chiefly under Jessica - during the 1980s-90s, yet Jesica remains a recognizable, minimalist variant with classic roots.
