Variations vs. Of vs. Boy name Jesse

I made a poll last night or early this morning asking for names based on description. One of the posted comments asked why I didn’t just use the name of the person for my son. The reason is because I wanted to keep an open mind and not just use the name Jesse. So my question is, is there any variation of the name Jesse I can use so my son can have his own identity? I would prefer to stay away from the name Jesus.

That’s a tough one. It’s a bit of a stretch, but what about the name Jens?

Jesiah (je-si-ah) although it may get confused for the more commonly used Josiah.

Any name that anyone can come up with that could be a variation works, I like the name Jens, I also like Jenson.

Joshua (since Jesse is a variant)

I don’t think the middle name Cleo is usable for a boy, plus Jesse really hated his middle name...

Eamon (rich protector)
Edmond (prosperous protector)
Edward (wealthy guardian)
Edwin (rich friend)
Otis (rich)
Richard (powerful, rich ruler)
