Re: James
in reply to a message by Lily
I love James. It's very handsome and masculine.
I have known just one that had James as a first name. Unless you want to count my husband, whose middle name, which he went by, was James.
The one James I knew was called James. My husband was called Jamie by some people, namely myself, his parents and siblings, and very old friends from childhood. Everyone else called him Jim.
I don't think you can re-interpret the meaning of James in some other way, but I don't care about the meaning of names anyway.
