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

How about Jim-Angie? I don't suppose one of her grandmothers is/was called Angela?

Jumanji?

QuietLifeNoDrama · 29/04/2024 12:22

I would go with Jimi or use it as her middle name.

Sounds like those combined house names where the owners are Jim and Kimberley like Casa Bevron😁

I heard of one once where a couple called Constance & Dominic did this!

And took all knowledge of her name with her, on the ride of her life?

LikeTalkingToLassie · 29/04/2024 12:14

@Vastlyoverrated , because Kimberley was/is a place name.

DramaAlpaca · 29/04/2024 12:13

Jimberley. Love it.

I'd take that one to R@dd@t for a laugh but they've banned me for being too rude about names Sad

Vastlyoverrated · 29/04/2024 11:42

I mean it's an interesting question why we find Kimberly ok and Jimberly not ok, but I would stick with one of the pretty James derivatives suggested.

Kimberly will always remind me of the Victoria Wood sketch.

LikeTalkingToLassie · 29/04/2024 12:12

It's lovely @Netruscan , go for it.

Hilarious, I knew a baby through work called Jimbob. We laughed a lot. (Out of sight and hearing of the parents)

The nicest thing I can think of to say about that is that I'd rather be called Jimbob than Fruitbat!

Orangemangogrape · 29/04/2024 12:09

No it wouldn't work.

What about Jem.

Moveoverdarlin · 29/04/2024 12:09

Some of these are making me snort laughing.

Mrspatmoresspoon · 29/04/2024 12:07
