Rem
Jye ( rhymes with eye)
Riah
Jeriah

Jere
Jem
Jimmy
Remy

Jer?

I'd naturally just use the first syllable. Jer (to rhyme with "air").

Remy

Jem

---

In the Outlander books there's a character named Jeremiah nn Jem. I love Jem as a nn for James, but it definitely can work for Jeremiah too.

And I don't like it, but I went to school with a Jeremiah who got called Miah. The other two I've known didn't use a nickname.

Jerry seems to be the obvious one although I've never liked it. I did used to know a family with a ds named Jeremiah and they called him Miah which I'm not feeling either due to the feminine name, Maia / Maya. I read a novel once where the hero was called Jem as a nn. That could work. It does feel a tad feminine to me, however. Remy would be perfect, imo. WDYT?

Good thing about Jeremiah is that it's long enough to give you a lot of options... How about:

---

Jerry
Jem (my personal favorite)
Jamie
Jer
Jay
Remi
Jermie (maybe not, but still kind of cute ;) )
Jarmo
Miah

The Jeremiah I know just gets called Jer. I think Remi could work too. Or Miah, but that sounds feminine.

Oh and then there's always Jem

Well, Jerry is obvious. Hm...maybe Jerem (basically just remove -iah)? Though, that sounds sort of like a name on it's own. Remy, perhaps?
