I just read that someone's boyfriend wants their child to be named Jaymz something. I forget the middle name. The woman likes it, but thankfully in my opinion, doesn't think she'd actually be able to use it.

Opinions on Jaymz? I don't like it cause it's just too weird for me, and it also looks to feminine to me for some reason.

There was a guy named "Jaymz" on So you think you can dance this season. Alls I kept thinking was that the creative spelling of his name looks to feminine and that it was spelled the way a homosexual man would spell it.

that is a terrible spelling. Just name him James, and if the kid wants to be kr8tyv on his own, he can go by Jaymz when he's 16, and then never again!

I don't think it looks feminine I just think it looks retarded.

IMO James is the best male name there is and its not super popular. So why ruin it with a kreaytiv spelling?

that is idiotic.

If the boyfriend likes it so much, he should change HIS name to James so no innocent children get hurt.

D'oh. I meant JAYMZ. I guess it was hard for me to bring myself to type it.

I immediately thought of that Jaymz as well.

Jaymz looks like something a fourteen year old James would use as a joke to prove he is gangsta.

So ugly. It's like it thinks it's being clever, but it's not, and that just makes it all the more offensive.

It reminds me of a friend of mine in high school who changed the spelling of her name from Tiffany to Typhanii.

OHhh, that's supposed to be pronounced James. I was reading it as a really bad spelling of "Jams". Yeah, not a good name.

That made me throw up in my mouth a little.

Ugh.

It's a great name, but I think it IS super popular, at least here. My brother is James, and wherever he goes (every class he's in, sporting group, etc) he is usually one of three. But I agree with you otherwise and if it's not popular where you are then that's great =)

whoa that looks like a disease. Typhoid maybe

Definitely - I was thinking typhus. Typhanii, Typhoid and Typhus would be a great sibset.

When my husband and I started dating (12 years ago), and we talked about kids, he wanted to name his son Jaymz. He said something about James from Metallica spelling it that way once and he loved it. I hated it, not only the spelling, but the name. Over the years, I have grown to love the name James, but would never go with Jaymz.
