Just don't do it if you hate a nickname, especially if that nickname is 'in fashion' when you have your son. Jim was definitely the go-to nickname for James when your husband was growing up.
I don't think a hatred of Bill should turn someone off using William currently but if you hate Will and want to avoid it, I'd steer clear of William. Of course, these things change and there is always a small chance of any of the nicknames! This is just like I wouldn't fear a little girl called Margaret would get Peggy or Peg these days unless it was chosen by their parents...but if you were completely opposed to Maggie, which is currently more popular...it might be best to not use Margaret.
