User Comments about the name James
Comment left Jul 12, 2010: "My name is James Weldon Warner and I have always received compliments on my full name which I love. I thank my parents all the time for my name." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 22, 2010: "Far too common. Also, if a name has five letters and still manages to have one measly syllable it will get repetitive to the point of ridiculousness." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 23, 2010: "For my first son James was the only name we wanted to call him. We thought we'd call him Jimmy but one time the midwife called him Jamesy and the nickname just stuck. So he's either James or Jamesy or any number of other names ie, cutie, sweetie, baby, bub, etc etc etc..." (Report as inappropriate)

What I can't believe is that you guys don't have the "Origins" of this name!
It is of English origin. Variant of Jacob (Hebrew) "he who supplants"" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jun 25, 2008: "I love the name James. It is the name I gave my youngest son and it suits him very well. He is not Jim or Jimmy, he's James. Although I did call him Jaimie (hi-me) Doodle when he was a little guy. His grandpa calls him by his initials, J.D. I think the name is strong, mature and dignified and will look perfect on a desk nameplate. :-)" (Report as inappropriate)
