Happy mothers day everyone I have covered my mums name (Elspeth) and her mums name (Isobel) it’s time I covered the most unusual name in my immediate family (well that and Natriesse) my nana Jamesie. I love Jamesie but it’s just too unusual to be used as a first name currently my first daughter will be named Isobel Jamesie Rose . Jamesie is a short form of the Scottish Jamesina though my nana is just Jamesie. Jamesie is pronounced like James with an ee sound at the end not Jam-ess-ee. Jamesie and Jamesina have never ranked but Jamesie sounds just like Maisie and has the nicknamey feel that many people love.
I’ve seen several girls called Jamie or Jaimie, and Jamesie seems warmer and cuter to me. It works well as a middle name, but I think it would be usable as a first name too.
Hope all the ladies in your family had a Happy Mother’s Day! 🙂
Thank you I also think it could be a bit insensitive for me to use it as a first name since I hardly knew my nana (she passed away when I was 2)
Yeah it might not be right for you to use it, but it might be perfect for someone else.
My cousin does want to use it as a middle name and so will I because my dad is always telling me I’m like her.
