S5.26-130 - What's in a Name... "Jayma"

In this milestone episode of What's in a Name?, host Jayma sits down with her very first guest who shares her name, a fellow Jayma podcasting from Northwest Ohio. 

A real estate agent, wife, mom, grandmother, and two-time cancer survivor, this Jayma opens up about her journey from disliking her name to embracing its meaning. Together they explore the name's biblical roots in Jacob, the unexpected resonance of meanings like "supplanter," "trickster," and "paradigm shifter," and what it signifies when names change in scripture from Simon to Peter. 

The two compare answers across the show's eight signature questions, swap stories about mispronunciations, and reveal which names they'd choose if they had to pick another. A warm, reflective conversation about identity, fresh starts, and finding strength in your name.
