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.

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

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.

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.
