What do you think of the name Jessenia? There's a girl in my TV acting class with that name, and I really like it. It's much better than Jessica, which is just way too popular. What do you think of it?

How do you say it? Is it like jes-EEN-ya? jes-EEN-ee-ah? jes-EHN-ya? I like any of those pn. actually, but I'm wondering what the real one is, lol.

This is an alternate spelling of Jesenia or Yesenia. It's actually quite common in the Hispanic American community, though people of other ethnic groups would find it to be novel.

I love it, too. It used to be one of my favorite names. I agree that it's a great alternative to the overused Jessica. I think it's supposed to be prn jeh-SEE-nee-uh, but I'd prn it jeh-SEH-nee-uh.

I like Jessenia a lot. While I like the softness of Jessie, I've never liked Jessica so Jessenia would work for me.

I like Jessenia, but I prefer Jessamy (Jess-a-mi). That's the name of a girl in my youth theatre, Jessamy Albion. Her middle name is because her Dad's a huge West Bromwich Albion football fan, much to Jess's horror!
