I don't really like this name but hey. My guy friend spells it Jaymie, and you pronounce it jay-MEE. Weird I know.

I've also seen it spelled Jaimi. I think it looks prettier!

I have always liked the name Jamie. Not sure though if I prefer it for a boy or a girl though. It also sounds young to me so I wonder how it would fit an adult.

I love the name on a boy, but hate it for a girl. Weird, since I've never actually known any male Jamies, but have had several female acquaintances with that name.

I love the name Jamie for either boy or girl, it is one of those true unisex names that works for either boy or girl.

Famous bearer is Jamie Monroe from the great movie RV.

I honestly think this spelling of Jamie should have always been masculine. The spellings Jaimie, Jaymie and Jaymee are all for girls and I think Jamie should be just for boys!

In America, the feminine form is very popular. I know of at least three female Jamies and zero male Jamies. There were a lot more male Jamies a hundred years ago.

So cute. I like it better as a boys' name, though, and I don't like all the variant spellings.

Jamie Fraser (James Alexander Malcom MacKenzie Fraser) is one of the main characters in Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series of books. Anyone reading these would forget all about the nickname Jamie being girly or for little boys only.

My own name. I'm quite grateful for being called Jamie because it's nice and simple and you can't really make fun of it.

-- Jamie Widdall  5/31/2008

This is an okay name for young, attractive guys, but try to imagine this name on some middle-aged, hairy guy who has really let himself go and gained a lot of weight. Not so hot anymore, is it? Heck, try to picture this name on attractive middle-aged guys, and it still sounds too youthful! Keep is as a nckname.

-- slight night shiver  6/7/2008

I really, really think that this name should be preserved as a nickname, and namely to guys named James. Jamie sounds okay on some tomboyish girl, but it begins to sound really youthful on a girl past the age of 16. It's not oozing with masculinity, but it is a boyish name, and I don't like it on females at all.

-- English26  11/5/2008

It's really good for a boy.

-- Kerules  4/5/2009

I like this for both genders, but only as a nickname for boys. It's too youthful to be a full name.

-- MoonAgeDaydreamer  6/28/2009

Jamie looks too cutesy as a full name on a boy. This will always be a feminine name to me because of Jamie Lynn Spears and Jamie Lee Curtis, among others.

-- bananarama  8/6/2009
