In France, Jérôme has been used continuously since the early Christian period.”

The name entered French and Italian use primarily through British cultural influence — particularly through the novels and films associated with Ian Fleming, the James Bond author — and became fashionable in France and Spain in the late 20th century. It is the most directly Celtic-derived given name in common French and Spanish use.”

It remains widely used in Francophone contexts.”
