Jacobine
j(a)-cobi-ne,
jac(o)-bine
Origin:Hebrew
Meaning:Supplanter; Held by the heel
Like a title straight out of 1600’s New England, Jacobine takes a step back in time. This classic title is a rare jewel almost reminiscent of life on the prairie. Derived from the Hebrew name Jacob, this title means “supplanter” and “held by the heel,” after the story of Jacob in the Old Testament, who famously deprived his brother twice of his rights as a firstborn. Whether your little bundle is a firstborn or not, they are bound to make their mark.
