[Opinions] Re: James
in reply to a message by Lily
I love James, it's my favorite boys' name. I've known quite a few over the years. A couple went by James, more by Jimmy or Jim. My FIL is named Jimmy, but it's just Jimmy, not short for James. I went to school with a boy named Jamie, but I don't know if it was his whole name or short for something.
I don't like Jamie at all on a boy, full name or nn. It's just icky. I like Jim and Jimmy though. Jim is handsome and reliable, and Jimmy is that with a fun-loving streak.
I don't pay much attention to the meaning of names unless it's very obvious, and James's meaning isn't.
