Julie Jacobs
In some universes where Jenny Everywhere grew up with adopted parents in of Westbrook, Wisconsin, she had an older sister called Julie Jacobs.

Though perceived as the “normal” one next to the “odd” Jenny, Julie was perfectly capable of coping with the strange and fantastical, even once falling in love with Death. (PROSE: The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere) She was fiercely protective of her and Jenny's younger sister Jordan. (GAME: The Jenny Everywhere Roleplaying Game) The version of Julie at the Redoubt in the Collapsed Cosmos appeared to be bisexual. (PROSE: The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere)

Though Julie did not possess any unusual or supernatural abilities, the version of her who travelled with Jenny for three years to find the Jordan had some experience with physical scuffles, and owned a Zap Orb which she could throw at her opponents. (GAME: The Jenny Everywhere Roleplaying Game)
Biography
The Vertginite bauble
In one such universe, Jenny, Julie and Jordan were the adopted daughters of Simon Jacobs and his wife. Julie and Jenny got along well, although they teased each other as sisters often do. Julie was more elegant than Jenny and boyfriend often gifted her expensive necklaces, most of which, as Jenny noted, she rarely wore but bragged about often. Unlike the Jacobs parents, Julie was not aware of Jenny's shifting powers and her double identity as a superhero. (COMIC: The Jenny Everywhere Chronicles)
Searching for Jordan
In another continuity where she was Jenny's adopted sister, being “roughly” the same age as her, the two ended up travelling the Multiverse together after Julie forced Jenny to take her along on her quest to find their little sister Jordan, who had been abducted by an unknown interdimensional kidnapper. Over the following three years' unsuccessful search, Julie's relationship with Jenny soured somewhat as she began to lose hope of ever seeing Jordan again, though she refused to go home empty-handed.
Three years into the adventure, the two sisters were travelling in the company of the repentant Abstract Odious, Jenny's fellow shifter Michael Wherever, the smug interdimensional hero known simply as the Chosen, and Lol, an amoral Data Pirate. After setting up camp in one universe they were attacked by Robotic Insects which “marked” them and transported them to a strange complex they could not shift out of, consisting of several “testing rooms” were they had to fight, or compete with, another team centred on Jenny Everywhere. After the trials, only one team, traditionally the winning one, would get to leave while the other would have to call for a second team to be shifted in, and defeat them (or get them to forfeit their exit on this round), before they could go home. Possibly after repeating the ordeal with a third team, Julie's group finally made their way home, never finding out the origins and true purpose of the twisted set-up. (GAME: The Jenny Everywhere Roleplaying Game)
In the Collapsed Cosmos
In another universe where, as she grew up, Jenny's relationship with her adopted parents ended up souring, she still remained close to Julie. The two became roommates in an apartment located on North Wintle Street. Eventually, she became an Instagram influencer. After the Multiverse collapsed, a portion of this particular timeline (North Wintle Street and Julie herself included) was rescued from oblivion by the Archons to become part of the Redoubt at the End of Time. This allowed the Jenny Everywhere of the Collapsed Cosmos to drop in at Julie's. When she did so, she discovered, to her uneasy surprise, that Julie had started dating Death. (PROSE: The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere)
Christmas in the Cupid Homeworld
In one universe, Julie Jacobs owned a house of her own. She had a good relationship with her sister, the local Jenny Everywhere, who was two inches taller than her and often left on fantastical space adventures.
For Christmas 2021, with “her” Jenny tied up with an intergalactic diplomacy mission, a different Jenny filled in to spend Christmas with Julie. The two got on well, with the other Jenny confiding in Julie about her difficult relationship with her version of Laura Drake, and agreeing to bake Julie her “Multiverse-famous cookies”. As they were busying themselves around the kitchen, however, the two received an invitation down the chimney which turned out to be from CS-NA, inviting Jenny to the Cupid Homeworld for the interdimensional Christmas party he'd organised. Jenny took Julie there. Adapting “surprisingly well” to the strange sights of the Homeworld, Julie watched with interest as Arganthone-056 gave a fencing demonstration using a peppermint stick. (PROSE: The Winter Quests)
Other references
The 38167th Universe's Jenny Everywhere saw multiple versions of Jordan and Julie when she began exploring the memories of her other selves. As a result, she did not anticipate that her own sister was a version of Jenny Nowhere rather than her equivalent of one of them. (PROSE: Family Business)
Behind the scenes
Julie presumably takes her name from the early proposed name for Jenny Everywhere in development, “Julie Everywhere”.
