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

How about Jimobel or Jimoline?

Jimolene sounds like something you rub on cuts and bruises( germolene!)

There are so many lovely names out there,
there’s no need to have to think up outlandish names.

Jim Jong Un between other serious kind answers is sending me over the edge here 😂 what a thread!

Why not go international: Jim Jong Un

👏👏👏👏😂

Cowhen · 29/04/2024 19:15

Seriously, if you don't like 'Jamie' (which i think is lovely), how about choosing something with the same name meaning as James?

Berlinlover · 29/04/2024 19:25

I can’t believe this thread is still going, it’s obviously a windup.

LuckyPeonies · 29/04/2024 19:29

Jimorra
Jimminy (hope your last name is not Cricket)
Jimellia
Jimabella
Jimily
Jimannah
Jimuby

This thread has helped me to resolve a long-standing issue I've been having working out what they were singing about in Freed From Desire:
My lover's got no money
He's got his Jimberley

That one comes up on misheard lyrics threads all the time, so I know I won't be alone in my relief.

This is the funniest thing I've read in ages! 🤣

Poor OP. What did Jim do that meant you can't consider another name? Does it have to have the stem Jim?

Jimogen?

ABwithAnItch · 29/04/2024 19:52

This cannot be real. I’m dying 😂😂

oakleaffy · 29/04/2024 19:53

It sounds like a 1970's children's television character name.
NO , OP! 😂

We considered that but I think it's spelt : Jemima

You're worried about misspelling Jemima and yet proposing Jimberly as a name? 🤔

Jimbeaux {Jimbo}

oakleaffy · 29/04/2024 19:56

@Netruscan In all seriousness, there are girls called 'Jamie' but they are rare.
Jamie Lee Curtis.

SchoolRunEscapee · 29/04/2024 19:59

I think the OP might have seen the Melissa McCarthy movie 'The Boss'.In the movie a man called Jim is talking to someone but doesn't want to give his real name, he panics and says his name is Jimberly. To be fair it's a great name 😄
