how many james' do you know?

[0percypig0]

Looking at the national statisitics James is top 10 and has been for a long time, but how many do you know?

I can only think of one in ds pre school, it doesn't seem that popular around here.

[MrsJohnDeere]

3 aged 8, handful of others who are adults.

And to add, I know of no others.

I have a sweet baby James (11).
He was the only one in his school untill last september.
I know 3, ranging from 5 to 26.

Fantastic name

[survivingsummer]

I only know 2 little boys called James - I'm quite surprised it is so popular according to the stats tbh! I seem to know so many Noah's, Archie's and Alfie's etc.. I like it as it will never sound dated.

[Beamur]

I don't know any babies/youngsters but I know several from 18+ there are quite a few at work. I think it's a lovely name,

[VoldemortsNipple]

In almost 5 years of working in my nursery, we haven't had any James'.

We have had two Jamie's, one of each sex.

DS1 is James. In foundation class, there were 3 James' but two of them left for other schools in year one and from then on he was the only one.

[OvO]

My DS1 is a James. There's no others in his class and I don't know any others.

[Em2010]

My ds is James. I don't know any others his age (2). I know a few older ones. It was never going to be a unique name but I love it!

[WithACherryOnTop]

Too many to count.Mostly adults,but several children too.It's very popular here.

[BoysBoysBoysAndMe]

I want James for ds3, but it's the middle names for ds1+2. So will be middle name for ds3 too (dh middle name)

I know of no James's in any playgroups, nurseries, schools ds attends

2 in their 20s
5 teenaged James
none under 13

[Thingymajigs]

My 25 year old cousin, two 30+ year olds in one small workplace and one 8 year old. It is very common as a middle name because it's a nice, simple name and goes with everything. Nothing flowed correctly with my DS's names except for James and Jack so we stuck with them.

[bagpuss]

Vagaceratops, mine too!

[mrstowers]

I know A LOT!! But it's still a lovely strong, solid, traditional name.

[cashmere]

I know 2 who are 2 years old. Have counted the people with 2 year olds I know well and would consider friends- so that's 2/19. (Also know various older ones through work etc)

[Vagaceratops]
