Jebbia

Jebbia is a surname that appears in North American and European records. The exact etymology of the name is not clearly documented in widely available reference works, and the surname remains relatively uncommon outside specific families and contexts.

The most prominent bearer of the name is James Jebbia (born 1963), a British-American fashion designer and entrepreneur who founded the streetwear brand Supreme in New York City in 1994. Supreme grew from a small skate shop into a globally influential label, known for its simple red box logo and for collaborations across music, art, and fashion. The brand played a significant role in the mainstream rise of streetwear and has been the subject of extensive media coverage and academic analysis of contemporary fashion culture.

Apart from James Jebbia, there are fewer widely documented figures with the surname in public records. The name’s presence in public life is thus predominantly tied to the Supreme brand and its founder. As such, Jebbia is chiefly associated with James Jebbia in contemporary culture, while remaining a surname with limited, widely recognized public instances beyond that context.
