The meaning of Jacque is 'supplanter'. Jacques is an old French-originated name. It is usually used as a boy's name that resembles the French form of James and Jacob. A supplanter is someone who intentionally occupies the place of someone else. Jacque is one of the popular names in ancient French families. Jacque and Jacq are believed to be originated from the northwest Brittany region in France. Eventually, these names spread to other parts of the world. In history, Jacob and Esau are twins born to Isaac and Rebecca. The younger is named Jacob as he is born with his hand holding Esau's heel. Rebecca was told by Lord that the younger one is stronger and will lead the Esau. He supplanted his brother Esau by stealing his birthright and his father Isaac's blessings. So Jacob was addressed with the meaning 'to supplant', for surpassing his brother twice. People with the name Jacque proved to be great leaders. A famous person with the name Jacque is Jacque Jones, who is a former Major League Baseball (MLB) outfielder.
