Jessie's English name is taken from {{wp|Jesse James}}, an American outlaw. Her Japanese name, Musashi, is taken from 宮本武蔵 ''{{wp|Miyamoto Musashi}}'', a famous Japanese swordsman. In his most famous duel, he defeated his rival, 佐々木小次郎 ''{{wp|Sasaki Kojirō}}'', after whom James got his Japanese name. However, one can argue that she is also named after the Japanese battleship {{wp|Musashi}}, as her rival [[Cassidy]]'s Japanese name is based on the Japanese battleship {{wp|Yamato}}. | Jessie's English name is taken from {{wp|Jesse James}}, an American outlaw.
