Jase

Jase is a modern English given name that emerged as an informal phonetic spelling of Jason, reflecting the way the name is commonly pronounced in casual speech. Jason itself derives from the Greek Iason, connected to the verb iasthai, meaning to heal, and was borne in Greek mythology by the hero who led the Argonauts in search of the Golden Fleece. Jase gained broader visibility in the early 21st century, partly through popular culture and reality television. Related forms include Jason and Jay.
