Confidence votes 24. No, while the Titanic and its tragedy were real, Jack and Rose are simply fictional characters. There was a trimmer aboard name John Dawson who died when the ship sank, but this is purely coincidental. Besides, he was Irish and his name was John.

The movie's love story is also fiction.
