Originally going to be called Jim after my granddad, but we've found out we're having a girl. Would this work?

My lover’s got no money,
he’s got his Jimberlys.

Is that not a skin condition like acne but in older people?
Or if its not it's a bit close for comfort.

Yes it is!
Someone posted upthread that it was listed as a name that would be nice if it didn’t mean what it means. Another one is Candida, which I always think could be quite pretty.

Oh man this thread is brilliant! I've been on here for 20 years and this really is like the threads of 15 years ago, Bravo Jimberly! 👏😊❤️. OP, if your suggestion was for real, take heart that you've made a lot of people very happy over the last few days/weeks however old the thread is, I salute you 👍😀

Rosacea is really pretty! Like Rose crossed with Lucia.

Calling a girl James is actually worse than calling one Jimberly and that's saying something.....

There are a lot of Jamies - or as that Australian comedian liked to pronounce it: J’aime- me!

Girls are called James too. Most commonly in the US but increasingly in the U.K.

Of course it isn’t. Any more than Bimberly. It’s just a made up variant of an actual name.

I love Bimberly 😊❤️

There’s a video going around atm of two women saying names they’d name their kids if there wasn’t already a meaning attached to the name. Like
’Felony’, ‘Feta’ and ‘Rosacea’. 😂

Jimbledon Common 😂

Whenever there is a name thread on MN, I now think of Jimberly

Or should it be Jimberleigh

Or Jymberleigh?

Or Jimba- Lee?

Jemma is fine - Jemma Redgrave. I also know a Jemma.
It doesn't compare with Jimberley though.

Giggorata · 02/06/2024 18:35

Haven't rtft but how about Gemma? Could maybe get away with spelling it Jemma.

CaraMiaMonCher · 02/06/2024 18:19

Saw this on Reddit earlier, assume it was OP’s DH who was posting.

Beautiful girl/boy twins - Jimberley and Jimbledon.
