Elizabeth for girls.

Elizabeth, Eliza, Beth, Lizbeth, Liz, Lizzie, Lizard, Lisbian, Lisan Al Gaib, the options are endless.

Beth can be tricky because it can also be short for Bethany.

Jimothy on special occasions

[-] sprite0@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

Jame Gumb the only one I ever heard of

[-] BitchPeas@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Was she a great big fat person?

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Is that your king / baron name?

[-] ianfraserkrillmaster@midwest.social 32 points 10 months ago

i would go with the quaint yet dignified "Jimb"

[-] saltnotsugar@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

I like the cut of your…Jimb.

[-] AmazingAwesomator@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

jimb can cause a chuckle in business meetings.

[-] bamboo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 10 months ago

How about Jimp? Every friend group needs a Jimp.

[-] MummifiedClient5000@feddit.dk 3 points 10 months ago

Like "jump", but with an i.

[-] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 2 points 10 months ago

Bring out the jimp

[-] darvocet@infosec.pub 3 points 10 months ago

Thank you for not misspelling it as Jamethon.

[-] N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

How about Jimbo, but with the "J" pronounced like an "H", as in Spanish.

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Only if you also pronounce the i as you would in Spanish, Heembo

[-] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 2 points 10 months ago

I'd go with Hi-May...

And spell it just like that.

[-] logicbomb@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

James seems like the least nerdy of the names that have common nicknames. Richard is another one that's not nerdy.

Same with Robert.

Do you remain Robert?

Become boring Bob?

Rob with one b or Robb with two?

If you're feeling whimsical, is it Robby or Robbie?

[-] ddplf@szmer.info 7 points 10 months ago

And if you're transitioning, you should probably avoid picking the name Margot

[-] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Funny enough, Margot is part of a family of names that's even bigger than James and Robert.

Margot, Marjorie, Marge, Greta, Rita, Megan, Maggie, Gretchen, Maisie, Molly, Peggy... The uniting feature is that all of these names are considered variants of "Margaret," and this isn't even a comprehensive list.

[-] nyctre@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Margherita and Margarita are my fav. Both delicious.

Don't forget Bobby, Boberino, and the unsung classic Bert.

That's virtual insanity!

[-] kibiz0r@midwest.social 7 points 10 months ago

Knew a guy named James Jones. He went by Bob. For reasons.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

that's a good reason to go by Jamie. Jamie Jones sounds nice.

[-] v4ld1z@lemmy.zip 6 points 10 months ago

Jimbo Jorker?

[-] Bosht@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I knew a Jimbo. Best friend for like half a decade. Dude def lived up to his name. Hope he's doing well.

[-] Jojowski@sopuli.xyz 4 points 10 months ago

Jam the man

[-] SeaDawg@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

"Imagine if I had a name like Jimmy Recard" (Jimmy Recard from Drapht) is looping in my head now...

[-] ODuffer@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

In the UK at least, 'Jay' is also commonly used for James. Not a bad choice. In addition, James Bond would like word about 'Nerdy' !

[-] Worx@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 10 months ago

Jamie Fookin Lannister

[-] anomoly_@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Okay, how about you're Jimmer, you're Jimmy, and you're Jim Bob. So you all get to be some version of Jim and we don't got to be in, fuckin... Cats.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 3 points 10 months ago

The formal variant is Jame-o

[-] Meron35@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Actually, James is short for Jean Names

[-] BingoBongoBang@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Thank you, Gaylord 🤣

[-] IphtashuFitz@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

My grandfather was a James. He went by Pete.

[-] makyo@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

What would a Gregg know about this

[-] Wilco@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

William has it better. Will, Willy, Willis, Willie, Buddy, Bud, Bill, Billy, and Liam. Willa, Wilhemenia, Wilma, and Billie for the ladies.
