'''Jacques''' {{IPA-fr|ʒak|}} is the [[French language|French]] equivalent of ''[[Jack (name)|Jack]]''. It is pronounced "Jack", but with the french "J" sound. |
|||
''Jacques'' is derived from the [[Late Latin]] ''Iacobus'', from the [[Koine Greek|Greek]] ''{{Polytonic|Ἰακώβος}}'' ([[Septuagint]]al Greek ''{{Polytonic|Ἰακώβ}}''), from the [[Hebrew language|Hebrew]] ''{{rtl-lang|he|יַעֲקֹב}}''.<ref>Morris, William and Mary (eds); entry for "Jacob", ''American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language'' (1975).</ref> (See ''[[Jacob (name)|Jacob]]''.) ''James'' is derived from ''Iacomus'', a variant of ''Iacobus''.<ref>Morris, William and Mary (eds); entry for "James", ''American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language'' (1975).</ref> |
|||
As a first name, ''Jacques'' is often phonetically converted to [[English language|English]] as ''Jacob'', ''Jake'' (from ''Jacob''), or ''[[Jack (name)|Jack]]'', but the last is not an accurate translation. (''Jack'', from ''Jankin'', is strictly a diminutive of ''[[John (first name)|John]]''.<ref>Morris, William and Mary (eds); entry for "Jack", ''American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language'' (1975).</ref>) |
