My husband and I actually had a serious conversation about baby names! We might be sick of it by the time we actually start TTC in September.
Anyway, he says "what about Jamie?"
What do you think?
I'm not averse to it, but it sounds like a nickname, and I can't figure out for what. I don't care for Jamila, Jamaica, or Jamala, and I'm not naming a girl James or Jameson. If I used another Ja- name, could we call her Jamie? If so, what name would you use?
I'm pimping my list as always.

Jamesenna (lol, not kidding. I actually found it on a site. It's pretty, but it's so obviously built.)
I don't know that I'd use it with something that didn't have jam in it. You could try a name that didn't start that way, like Marijam/Mirjam (variation on Miriam, and probably not pronounced with the J sound. But I'm unfamiliar with Dutch or Swedish Js.)
