My oath; pledge
Jeselle is a modern American creation, likely formed by blending the prefix 'Je-' (from names like Jessica or Jean) with the suffix '-selle' (from Giselle). It is often associated with the Hebrew meaning 'God is my oath' via its phonetic similarity to Jezebel or Elizabeth, or the Germanic 'pledge' via Giselle.
