Jammie
Jammie Origin and Meaning
Jammie is a masculine name that originated as a diminutive form of James, which ultimately derives from the Hebrew name Ya'akov (Jacob), meaning 'supplanter.' It emerged as a nickname spelling in English-speaking countries during the 20th century, reflecting the casual pronunciation of Jamie. The name has a friendly, approachable quality with a distinctly informal feel. While less common as a formal given name than Jamie, Jammie appears occasionally in both the United States and United Kingdom records. The spelling with double 'm' gives it a slightly unique variation that distinguishes it from the more traditional Jamie, though both share the same warm, affectionate character.
