Jesly is a modern name of uncertain origin, used mainly in Hispanic American families; it is usually explained as a blend of Jessica, which comes from Hebrew and is read as "to behold" or "God beholds", with the fashionable ending -ly. It has the same rhythm as Leslie and Kimberly, two names that are popular in Latin America. Jesly was barely used for decades and then jumped from number 11570 in 2024 to number 1550 in 2025.
