History & Origin

Jaculin is a phonetic respelling of Jacqueline, the French feminine of Jacques, itself from Jacob, the Hebrew Ya'aqov, 'supplanter.' Jacqueline was highly fashionable in early-nineteen-sixties America during Jacqueline Kennedy's years in the spotlight, and plain spellings like Jaculin appeared alongside it, keeping the meaning.

This spelling was never common, given to only about fifteen girls a year even at its peak around 1961. A girl named Jaculin then is in her sixties today.

Did you know? Jacqueline, the parent of Jaculin, peaked in American popularity in the early nineteen-sixties - the Jackie Kennedy era - just when Jaculin appears in the records.
