Jimberly

[Netruscan]

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

Too funny! Jamie is a perfectly nice girls name and linked to Jim, if you’re serious?!

I'm so sorry OP but I am HOWLING! 😂

Agree that Jemima/Jamilla/Jamie are a million percent better and a squillion percent less amusing.

I was watching Suits and Harvey calls another lawyer Jimbo, like making fun of him, this is what it reminded me of. I didn´t even now Jimberly was a name, I thought t was Kimberly with a typo.

Me too. And for that reason I wouldn't saddle a child with that name either.

'@Katiesaidthat , of course it's a name. Have you not heard of Jimberly-Clark and Jimberly Jardashian? There are literally billions of Jimberleys at DC's school.

Jimjiminy?

Jamesina is a legitimate Scottish girls' name
I prefer Jemima

It's this kind of post that results in Billy Bragg calling MN a hate site isn't it?

Had to spit my coffee in the sink before I choked on it, and then continued to wheeze laugh my way through this thread. Brilliant work everyone.

This has to be the funniest name ever suggested on here and that's saying something.

🙂

I’ll never get the moment back of reading someone suggest Jimbalonz. This thread has had me crying with laughter. Life’s all downhill from here.

It sounds like ‘Jingly’. Very Christmassy

Wasn't the funniest name thread the 'What's Hugo short for?' with Jizabella a close second?

What about Jim-Jimery-Jim-Jimery-Jim-Jim-Jeroo?

Omg the Hugo thread was cracking.

I just remember Hugoesthere and Hugopotamus 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Haven't RTWT, but can honestly say this is the worst name suggestions I've seen on MN. As I'm sure others have pointed out, the name Jaime is a female form of James/Jim.

Long name for Hugo? | Mumsnet
Son's thrown a new entry into the ring... | Mumsnet

I have no children and no desire for any but threads like this are the reason that 'baby names' remains one of my favourite topics...

Lots of women with names like Jamesina, Thomasina, Williamina are known as Ina.
That generation of names are probably all 70 plus.

No, it's from her father, Nigel.
Her sisters similar monstrosities for names - Horatia and the slightly better Thomasina.

Jamie or Jemima would work well.

Jimberley could be a family nickname though.

@mathanxiety , that is specific to one person called Nigella. The name itself is from the plant.
Her sisters' names are nice IMO.

How about Shay or Shae?
They're short for Seamus, Irish for James.

No 😂😂😂
