name origion
the origion of my name i discovered in a bookshop in New Zealand. It is of hebrew origion meaning "wealthy woman." The origion has since, i have discovered, been corrupted into simply being a diriviative of american origion, being a contraction of Jessica and Lyn, but the name JESSLYN is an hebrew drerivitave, as i just mentioned, rather than an american corruption.

I've heard it also to mean "exciting" for the American variation or "richly blessed" for the Scottish one. I assume you are right with the Hebrew meaning though.-Seda*
