If someone’s name were “Jim”, the Japanese pronunciation/spelling would be “Jimmu” if in katakana.
Jimmu is, technically, spelled Jinmu. So it is actually pronounced, in Japanese, jeen-muy.Oddly enough, according to http://www.douseidoumei.net/, 3 people in Japan (I'd assume all of them are males) were given the kanji (神武) for Jinmu/Jimmu. However, it's difficult to determine if they're actually called Jinmu or something else like Kamitake, Kanatake etc.
