Jessup is a boy’s name from the Biblical Hebrew Joseph, meaning “Jehovah increases.” Joseph ultimately derives from Yehôsêph, which has contemporary variations like Yossi and Yosef.

A vintage form of a historical name that spans millennia, Jessup is a classic choice for those seeking a title rich in origin.
