  • All the girls I know spell their name Jaime, and the guys I know spell it Jamie.  The sex is what would determine the spelling for me.

  • I know girls with Jaime, Jamie, Jaimee, & Jaymie.  I am a little biased, I can never remember how to spell this name.

    And I agree about the Spanish pronunciation.  My friend Jaime gets that all.the.time.

     This.... not sure why some posters say they have never seen "Jamie".  Maybe it is a regional difference.  Jaime is 100% boy!

  • I agree with the HI-mee for Jaime... for what it is worth I spell my name Jamie and have  never had an issue Smile
  • I like Jaime better. Both are fine though. IMO, neither are "ugly" spellings. It's a fine name. Everyone will know it, but she shouldn't have to go through school using her initial to distiguish herself. :)

  • Gotta throw my 2 cents in on this one since I am a "Jami" and my DH is a "Jamie"

    I have two girlfriends named "Jami" and another named "Jamie" as well.

    I LOVE my name...but I've always wished my mom would have spelled my name a little different like Jaime, Jaimee, or Jaymee.. just because I knew the other girls who spelled it the same as I did. I've only encountered the spanish pronunciation in Spanish class, but I live in Virginia.  

  • jamie.

    jaime is pronounced Hi-may.

  • I like this name (we considered it too) and prefer the spelling Jaime.

  • I am a Jamie and I LOVE my name. My mom was reading a book while she was pregnant about a cat named Jamie and a girl named Poppy. Luckily she got the cat before me and named her Poppy!!!! I am not sure I would have loved that but Jamie I am just fine with!

    Jaime.  I've never even seen it spelled Jamie.

    I'm the opposite. I know all Jamie's (girls and one guy). Never met a Jaime.

  • I like the name.  I have girl friends who spell it both ways, but I prefer Jamie (for either a girl or a boy).

  • Jaime is Hi-may to me, even though I know a lot of girls with hat spelling.  Jamie is much better.

  • My best friend spells her name Jayme. I love it.

     this!

  • i like Jamie better, but I don't like the name. I'm not a fan of unisex names. I have one and it's one thing I don't like about my name.
  • I dislike all the cutesy spellings so I'd go with Jamie. The name is just alright to me.
  • its ok, i like it better for a girl.  Jamie is how i would spell it.
  • My aunt wanted my cousin's name to be a bit different from all the other "Jaime's" so she spells it "Jayme". I think it looks pretty this way as well.

  • I'm also a Jamie (named after my grandfather, James).  I have found that most girls are "aim" while most boys are "ami" but, for a girl, I don't really think it matters.  Didn't like my name growing up, but I love it now!  (So, guess I'm a little biased.)  ;)

  • I like Jamie better. Jaime looks like it's either misspelled, or Spanish.

  • The guys I've known have been Jaime, whereas the girls I've known have been Jamie. I believe that Jamie Lee Curtis spelled it J-A-M-I-E.

    I think it's a great name, and either spelling you choose is "legit".

    This.  I'd think Hi-May unless I knew it was a girl.

  • my name is Jaime and I like how it is spelled.... I grew up in CA and never had to correct anyone for saying it w/the spanish pronunciation...except for the few times I ran into people who spoke only spanish and very little English.  so it was a non-issue for me....
