Jasmine or Jacqueline are the best alternatives for Jamesina.
I like this name but it sounds dull and backward, I prefer Janice, so easy to me.
I love it! I'm also planning to use James for my baby girl alone too! I hope this name gets popular in the top 100 name list!
I agree this name is just too fake. Jasmine is a good alternative though.
Ugly.
Jem, Jemma and Jin are potential nicknames.
Looks and sounds so unpleasant!
It's a bit forced, but it's very pretty and I don't hate it.
I know it’s a forced feminine form of James, but what’s wrong with forced feminine forms of male names? You think Josephine is pretty? Well, so is Jamesina and Jacobine! I love this as a feminine form of James even if James is used as a feminine name at its very modest. You want something original? Well this is an example!
Ugh, skip it.
Like most Scottish feminine forms of male names, this name is terrible. It sounds like something a guy named James would name his daughter to show his ego. Jamie and even Jimmie on girls sounds better than this. Oh well... at least it's not Jamesetta.
I hate the name James but Jamesina is very good and cute for a woman, better than Jacqueline I believe.
This is much better then James on a girl. It's pretty.
Is is james-ina? Or jame-es-ina? The latter definitely sounds less forced.
It sounds pretty, but not really natural and kind of forced. Like Adamina or Thomasina.
I don't love this name but I appreciate it. I agree with other comments that it would be a nice way to get to the nickname 'Jamie.'
Very beautiful and elegant, Jamesina is such a lovely name in my opinion. It is much better than Jamie (or Jaime) on a girl (which I abhor).
Makes me think of Aunt Jamesina in the 'Anne of Green Gables' books who hates her name, and is called Aunt Jimsie.
Cute. And a good way to bear a 'real' and mature sort of name but use the nickname Jamie.
I am very fond of this name obviously. It was considered by my mother for me, as she wanted to honor her uncle, James, but she decided to give me a feminized form of his middle name, Alvin, for my middle name.
Jamesina is a very elegant name for a girl.
