Jessica Engelking: Hi, my name is Jessica Engelking. You can pronounce that Angelking or Ingelking, both are fine. My first name Jessica is quite popular. My parents told me that when I was born, they did not know any other babies named Jessica, but it was, in fact, the most popular girl's name that year. My last name Engelking is an anglicized German last name. It would've been Engelkornig which means king of angels. So the engel part means angel and the king part means king.
