Jimothy sounds like one of those English sounding names that Chinese people like to give themselves. Like Samanfar
Wait wtf, the video I'm referencing is almost old enough to vote? God damn it I'm old.
What a delightful video :D
Samanfar took me a minute. I also approve of Smacker.
Elizabeth for girls.
Elizabeth, Eliza, Beth, Lizbeth, Liz, Lizzie, Lizard, Lisbian, Lisan Al Gaib, the options are endless.
Coming out as lisbian
Proud of you!
Beth can be tricky because it can also be short for Bethany.
i would go with the quaint yet dignified "Jimb"
I like the cut of your…Jimb.
jimb can cause a chuckle in business meetings.
How about Jimp? Every friend group needs a Jimp.
Like "jump", but with an i.
Jamethan.
Thank you for not misspelling it as Jamethon.
How about Jimbo, but with the "J" pronounced like an "H", as in Spanish.
Only if you also pronounce the i as you would in Spanish, Heembo
I'd go with Hi-May...
And spell it just like that.
James seems like the least nerdy of the names that have common nicknames. Richard is another one that's not nerdy.
I like Jamiroquai.
That's virtual insanity!
Knew a guy named James Jones. He went by Bob. For reasons.
that's a good reason to go by Jamie. Jamie Jones sounds nice.
Jam the man
Jimbo Jorker?
In the UK at least, 'Jay' is also commonly used for James. Not a bad choice. In addition, James Bond would like word about 'Nerdy' !
"Imagine if I had a name like Jimmy Recard" (Jimmy Recard from Drapht) is looping in my head now...
I knew a Jimbo. Best friend for like half a decade. Dude def lived up to his name. Hope he's doing well.
Actually, James is short for Jean Names
Thank you, Gaylord 🤣
My grandfather was a James. He went by Pete.
Okay, how about you're Jimmer, you're Jimmy, and you're Jim Bob. So you all get to be some version of Jim and we don't got to be in, fuckin... Cats.
Any Australians out there able to comment to tell us if Jim-o is a valid nickname?
It doesn’t matter if it’s valid or not aussies will turn anything into a nickname
Nope. We usually shorten the last name instead if it doesn't roll off the tongue easily. Or we name them after a beloved fictional character, eg. jimbob.
What would a Gregg know about this
William has it better. Will, Willy, Willis, Willie, Buddy, Bud, Bill, Billy, and Liam. Willa, Wilhemenia, Wilma, and Billie for the ladies.
Dunno. Greg sounds more nerdy than James.

And what of you got named Jim? I mean can they go back to James? Or are they going to stick with Jimmy and Jimbooo?
I'd go with the European Jimmy
This is insane, folks.
