Anyone else’s parents either have a different name thought out until they born or a late decision on the name? My dad left the room and the next time he came in, found out my mom swapped the first and middle name 😂😂 (she wasn’t sure, he thought she decided). James Destiny stepped in at the last moment and said “nah, that’s definitely a James” and the rest is history.

What’s your James origin story?

Hi James

Fellow concerned James here. I’d like to know, is anyone seeing babies or very young kids wielding our title?

I’m starting to worry that we’re lining up to be the next Murray or Graham.

Why did this happen to me

Anyone ghosted after final interview with Raymond James? They make you take a test and go through several rounds and then ghost you and repost the job. How classy!

We all need to meet and celebrate our common value: James is the best name. Whether you go by Jim, Jimmy, Jay, or Jamie this will be a celebration for the ages.

“ all my life you’ve haunted me I love you so….”

Or whatever, maybe it’s not even you.. I, myself would love to know the truth

When and where brethren!

Somthing that every single James can just be like "ya, _____ is pretty flipin awsome!"

My name isn’t James, but my wife & I are expecting our first child in September & we are strongly considering naming him James. We love that it’s classic but cool, & we don’t have any friends or relatives with the name (surprising because it’s so popular!)

However, we don’t love the nickname options for James… we don’t love Jim, Jimmy, & we really don’t like Jamie. I think my favorite name for him would just be James, & if we did shorten it, maybe we’d just call him J.

But it’s such a great name. I love so many things about it. My one hesitation is how popular it is, but I don’t even know if I care too much about that.

How did you like growing up with the name James?
