I was adding new quotes to my list of inspirational quotes and I came across some new writing quotes on the internet. Just like the name Havelock *See on list of posts* this name was the name of an author whose quote I read. Jessamyn was the one I saw but when looking up the name I often saw the spelling Jessamine so I added them both. It seems this name was around as far back as the 1950’s but I would assume it may go even farther back but I am not sure how far back this might have been used or how often. It has good meanings and is a pretty name. A good nickname could be Jessa.
