I love the name Jesse for our son but my partner thinks it’s to much of a girly name thinks he might get bullied for having a girls name!

Not girly! Know plenty of male Jesse’s and two of them were the most masculine (and attractive) men I’ve ever known!
It’s a great name.

I know a guy named Jesse, he likes his name!!

Only Jesse I know is from the show full house but it’s def a unisex name Jesse ( Boy) Jessie ( Girl) and only girl I know is from the movie Toy Story.

Definitely a unisex name, just remind him of Jesse Pinkman from breaking bad 😂

oh yea I forgot that show 😂😂

if you live in the US, i would definitely say Jesse is more of a masculine name. in the UK, Jessie was more a girl's name back in the 90s/00s - often a nickname for Jessica, which was popular at the time - but it has since become more of a unisex name, and if i saw it spelled Jesse, I would assume it was a boy's name. 💙

my bil! he likes his name

I don't know anyone named Jesse but I think boy when I hear the name

Jesse McCartney

I know both a guy and a girl name Jesse. I think the girl was spelled differently. It was spelled, Jessie.

It's nice

My husbands name is Jesse and I showed him this and he said "amazing name, obviously!" 😂
Wow thanks for the response can’t wait to show this to my partner! Thanks girls! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
love it!!
we’re UK based x

in the UK, I would still say Jesse is a boy's name if it is spelled that way - i would only think it was feminine if it was spelled Jessie - and overall, I think it has become more of a masculine name now anyway! 💙

My boss's name is Jesse. I've never asked his opinion, lol, but he doesn't seem traumatized or anything. 🤷🏼♀️😂
Jesse McCartney...Jesse from 'Full House'...that song from the 80s called 'Jesse's Girl' (I can't remember who sang it). There are plenty of examples of that being a masculine name.
ETA: The company I work for works closely with different lawyers...one of them is a man named Jesse.

I know both genders with that man I know even made his son a Junior so I’m pretty sure guys like it lol

I do. Brother of an old school friend. Jesse is also my 3 yo grandsons name
