Jacqueline- fem version of Jacques From the Latin Jacobus, which was from the Greek ÎακÏÎ²Î¿Ï (Iakobos), which was from the Hebrew name ×Ö·×¢Ö²×§Ö¹× (Ya'aqov).Other theories claim that it is in fact derived from a hypothetical name like ×ַעֲקֹ×Ö°×Öµ× (Ya'aqov'el) meaning "may God protect"

Clarissa comes from Clara or Chiara, "chiaro" being italian for bright, fair, clear.
Francesca and Jacqueline come from very old names Franco, Frances, Francois (common in all roman-language countries)
and Jacob, Jacques, Jake. I believe both names have their root in antique times. There's a name Jacob mentioned in the bible already. -line is a tipical female ending, being added to a male name.
Xandria, or Alexandria, comes from the name Alexander or Xander, which is probably greek or phoenician, possibly with older roots.
Juinice - I speculate it might have a connection with Giovenice, Giove or Juve being either ancient roman foather of gods (jupiter) or female goddess of youth (Juvena).
Giovinezza means youth (as in being young) in italian.
