Jamie is my best friend’s name. I adore his name and it’s very special to me because of him but he absolutely hates it and goes by “Jay” instead. Such a disappointment.

for me it's too associated with Jamie Oliver, Jaime from Game of Thrones, and Jamie Foxx.

Sounds dated but I like it for a girl, especially in the combination Jamie Lynn.

I like it on a boy short for James.

I LOVE Jamie. It's so sweet, handsome, medieval-ish and yet casual. I would totally name a boy Jamie, but I'm weary if it's good enough as a stand alone so I often default to legal name James. I like James a lot to, but I love Jamie. But not on a girl imo.

Agreed! I tend to agree with all your posts!

I totally agree with you about Jamie: "It's so sweet, handsome, medieval-ish and yet casual"

I strongly dislike James and I think that Jamie is great as a standalone name (just like Alec, Kit, Harry, Jack ...I love this "cluster").

Obviously as I'm Italian it would not be my first choice but as MN, why not?
