Jeanette Voerman is a character from the 2004 video game Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, an action role-playing video game developed by Troika Games and published by Activision. Set in White Wolf Publishing's World of Darkness setting, the game is based on White Wolf's tabletop role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade. Created by Brian Mitsoda, an early version of her character was debuted in the E3 demo for the game as a means to attract the attention of journalists. In game she is voiced by Grey DeLisle-Griffin, and on the box art and promotional artwork for the title portrayed by Erin Layne. In live action media, she has been portrayed by Whitney Moore in L.A. by Night.

She is one of the two vampire co-Barons of Santa Monica, California and owner of the Asylum night club, the other being Therese Voerman. Though both regard the other as their twin sister, it is Jeanette is the alter of Therese, who due to abuse has dissociative identity disorder. Neither is dominant or aware they share the same body, and Jeanette actively works to sabotage Therese. In books for the role-playing game, it is established that Asylum has become a global franchise, with Jeanette and Therese alternatively managing either the Santa Monica or Hollywood locations.

Jeanette has been cited as one of the best aspects of Bloodlines, praised for both her character design and character, and introduction and portrayal helped set the tone of the game. While some have criticized her character's sexualization as fanservice intended for a male audience, others have argued it works in line with her character and cited her high popularity with fan communities who have portrayed her through cosplay. Her relationship with her other personality Therese has also been analyzed, both through the scope of their contrasting personalities and how their issues reflect perceptions of successful women in the modern age.
