Jemma Given Name Meaning & History

GENDER: Feminine, USAGE: English (British), PRONOUNCED: JEM-a. A variant of GEMMA. This name derives from the Latin “gemma”, meaning “gem, precious stone, (poetic) seal, ring (figuratively) ornament, beauty”. It is an auspicious name, which expresses the desire for the girl who is beautiful and precious as a gem. Gemma Galgani was an Italian mystic, venerated as a saint in the Roman Catholic Church since 1940. She has been called the “Daughter of Passion” because of her profound imitation of the Passion of Christ.

Jemma is an English (mainly British) variation of Gemma, an Italian nickname meaning “gem, jewel” that dates back to the Middle Ages. The Old Anglo-Saxon word for a “precious stone or jewel” was actually ‘gimm’ later changed to ‘gemme’ in Middle English under the influence of the Norman French. Both are believed to share a prehistoric connection to the roots *gen- meaning “to bear, produce” and *’gembh’- meaning “to bite, tooth.” Two of the most famous name bearers include Gemma di Manetto Donati, wife of 13th-century Italian poet Dante Alighieri (author of the Divine Comedy which includes Dante’s Inferno). The second is the late 19th-century Italian saint Gemma Galgani who was the focus of many astonishing signs of grace such as the repeated appearance of stigmata and several fits of ecstasies. Most likely, however, English-speakers have adopted the name Jemma due to its pleasant and straightforward etymology: “gem, jewel.”
