I love calling him Jamie, but he'd probably only let them call him that when he was really young. I can very much see that as a nickname his mum and dad called him.

Jim Broadbent is British. I can see Harry or Ginny calling him Jamie once in a while but Jim just doesnt' seem to fit for me. If JKR had given us his nickname in the epilogue like she did for Al, I'd be able to think of him as something other than James.

I think in little0bird's fics, James is occasionally called Jemmy by his mum and dad, so there's another option. I don't really like it that much, though, tbh. And anyway, I think it's actually supposed to be a nickname for Jeremy.

Anne and Gilbert Blythe named their oldest son James Matthew and called him Jem although it may have been because his initials were JM. And this kid's name is actually an issue for me. Matthew deserved to be more than a middle name, I don't care how awesome Captain Jim was.

Did you read our analysis of their personalities a few pages back? That's even more interesting.

emeraldflames · 11-07-2009, 06:39 PM

ZOMG beautiful picspam!

Guh. So gorgeous. Love all the colors you used.

wyndrider · 11-07-2009, 06:41 PM

Great picspams, dlittleone.

I love the little notes you put under every picspam.

H/G story is simply beautiful.

Leo-4-Life · 11-07-2009, 06:45 PM

LOVE the picspam!! Oh my God.

Also I agree that if James was to have a nickname it would probably be Jamie. Which is so adorable to me. Aww!

CHH · 11-07-2009, 06:57 PM

We're going to need a new thread title soon. Any ideas?

Awesome picspam

Loved it.

I see Jamie being used as a nickname for James when he was young. It just fits for me.

Kgose · 11-07-2009, 07:45 PM

I like the nickname Jamie for James as well. It's probably due to a lot of fanfics I have read and like use Jamie for James's nickname.

wyndrider · 11-07-2009, 07:57 PM

I'd even seen some fics that use Harold as Harry's full name, which I think is kind of weird. Coz I thought Harry's name has always been Harry.

Kgose · 11-07-2009, 07:59 PM

I have as well and found that weird. Harry's name will always be just Harry to me. No Harold crap.

stumps101 · 11-07-2009, 08:01 PM

Ew no Harold for Harry please.

Who's starting the new thread ?
