Meaning of Jakarii
Jakarii is a modern American name that appears to blend the biblical Jacob with the Hebrew Ari, then stylized by a distinctive double-i ending that evokes the rhythmic patterns of Latin American naming. Pronounced juh-KAR-ee (/dʒuˈkəri/), it has maintained a modest but steady foothold in U.S. birth records—ten newborn boys in each of 2023 and 2024 (ranked in the low 900s), up from six in 2019 and seven in 2022.
