Jameson or Jamison or some form of a boys name on kindergartner. On a girl. There's a James, boy, in the class, too. See, I kinda get boys names on girls here and there. But now that I have a child in kindergarten, it does kind of make me sad for them. They'll be ok after middle school... There is much worse out there (if it's spelled "correctly") and whatnot, but why? She's probably adorable, seems to be smart from what my child comes back talking about, why do that?

It's such masculine names. At the daycare I work at, there's a little boy named Jameson, nicknamed Jamey. I still don't know if I like it, but it's so much better on a boy.

such a masculine name*

Personally, I don't understand the -son trend for girls. That suffix means "son of". Madison, Addison, whatever... Personally, I don't get it. Jamison is even worse.

RIght? Makes no sense! And it's so much worse than the others you mentioned, at least those are used regularly.

First thing I thought of was Jenna Jameson :/ Maybe it's a family name or something?

She'd probably rather be named Jenna with the last name Jameson!

Me too.

Jameson/Jamison is really masculine to me...
I don't get it either.

I have to agree with everyone else...why would you stick such a masculine name on a little girl? It means son of James, for goodness sake!
