    The name Jack is pronounced jak. It is of Old English origin. Name based on John (Hebrew) "the Lord is gracious", or Jacques, the French form of Jacob (Hebrew) "he who supplants." The name has a rugged, down-to-earth aura.

    During the Middle Ages, Jack was so common that it was used as a general term for 'man' or 'boy'. Jackie is used more for girls than for boys. Actors Jackie Gleason, Jack Nicholson, Jack Black; comedian Jack Benny; exercise guru Jack LaLanne.
