Meaning & origin
Jackqueline is a rare spelling variant of Jacqueline, which itself has been in use since the 19th century. The Jacqueline spelling reached its peak popularity in 1964, and the variant Jackqueline has remained uncommon. The name is derived from the French feminine form of Jacques (Jacob), meaning 'supplanter'. While the Jacqueline spelling saw significant use in the mid-20th century, the Jackqueline variant never achieved high rank in popularity charts. The name has a stable trajectory in recent years.
Jackqueline is a non-standard spelling of Jacqueline, the French feminine form of Jacques (equivalent to James or Jacob). The root name Jacob comes from the Hebrew Ya'aqov, traditionally interpreted as 'supplanter' or 'holder of the heel'. Jacqueline has been used in English-speaking countries since the 19th century, with spelling variants like Jacquelyn and Jackqueline emerging in the 20th century.
