Origin & history of Jerrod1
Hebrew roots
Jerrod is a spelling variant of Jared, from the Hebrew Yered meaning descent or to descend. Jared was an antediluvian patriarch in the Book of Genesis, listed as the father of Enoch. The Jerrod spelling, with the double-r and -od ending, became a fashionable American variant in the 1970s and 80s, peaking in 1983. It carries the same biblical Hebrew root as Jared but with a slightly more rugged, distinctly American look.
