I'm a Jessy, i love my name, most people call me just Jess, but also alot ask why i have a girlsname haha, they don't know anything
Sad doesn't seem like the right work as when someone coohses to take their life it is beyond tragic. To not feel like someone loved you , when so many people do. I worked with a teen for three short years. She was an amzing person, last year she took her life. It was aweful to think about what her mindset must have been like to make the decision and then'to follow through on it. I am hoping that Jessy and Chantelle have found the love they were looking for.
I would say no to this Jessy name. Jesse is for boy and Jessie is for girl. A parent uses Jessy, sounds uneducated. I would just assume the person is from a low educational family. :(
I'm Jessy. And my friends call me Jess for short. And yes, I do get a lot of comments on why I have a girlish name, but hey... I still love my name! ^^
