Jacob is a common male given name and a less well-known surname. It is a cognate of James, derived from Late Latin Iacobus, from Greek Ἰάκωβος Iakobos, from Hebrew יַעֲקֹב (Yaʿaqōḇ), the name of the Hebrew patriarch, Jacob son of Isaac and Rebecca. The name comes either from the Hebrew root עקב ʿqb meaning "to follow, to be behind" but also "to supplant, circumvent, assail, overreach", or from the word for "heel", עֲקֵב ʿaqeb. It can also be taken to mean "may God protect."
The Zebra G Japanese pointed nib is a great tool for drawing, calligraphy and lettering. It is gentle enough for beginners to practice English Italic, Spencerian, or modern calligraphy.
Usage tips:
New metal nibs for regular calligraphy are a little oily to the touch - they are coated with a special oil to prevent rusting; I recommend rubbing the new nibs with rubbing alcohol - this way you wash off the factory oil, the ink will not roll off the nib and will stick and drain better.
While writing, I also do not recommend touching the metal nib with your fingers - a small layer of grease will remain on it, which may cause ink to drain poorly from the nib.
After you have finished writing, rinse the nib thoroughly by first pulling it out of the holder. I recommend storing the nibs separately from the nib holder to prevent the nibs and nib core from rusting.
