S/O and I really like the name [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] for a girl, but we’ve been trying to find something that works well with it. We keep coming back to [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] [name_u]Lynn[/name_u]/[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u]. We’d use it as a double first name, if we were to use it, which is why we’re leaning towards the hyphen.
What do you think of [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u]? I know it’s dated, but, do you think it works? The [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] [name_u]Lynn[/name_u] Spears connection doesn’t bother us in the slightest, as I went to school with a J@mi [name_u]Lee[/name_u], and she never had a constant “oh like [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] [name_u]Lee[/name_u] [name_u]Curtis[/name_u]??” commentary when introducing herself.
I did automatically think of [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u] Spears. But that is my era of TV ([name_f]Zoey[/name_f] 101 forever!) and music.
If the connection doesn’t bother you then I think its a fine name, definitely not my style (not a huge fan of [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] as a given name/on girls) but it seems to be your style and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u].
Other suggestions:
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Kate[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Louise[/name_f] ([name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lou[/name_u])
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Beth[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Faye[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Faith[/name_f]
If the connection really doesn’t bother you, then it doesn’t bother you. I personally think it’s just a bit too connected to ONE person to use, like [name_m]Jon[/name_m]-[name_m]Benet[/name_m] or [name_f]Oprah[/name_f].
What about [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lou[/name_u] or [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Beth[/name_f] or [name_f]Terri[/name_f]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u]?
Thank you both! We did both like [name_f]Zoey[/name_f] 101 as kids, but, no, neither of us are terribly bothered by the association. I went to school with 1 J@mi, and two girls named J@ime - one happened to also be J@ime [name_u]Lynn[/name_u], and it never really seemed too ‘one person’ to me.
I like the suggestions of [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Beth[/name_f] and [name_f]Terri[/name_f]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u], though the latter is a very, very popular hybrid name for women born in my mom’s generation where I live.
For me personally [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u] sounds too dated and popular, but I’m just not a fan of [name_u]Lynn[/name_u] as an add-on at all. I don’t mind the name [name_u]Jamie[/name_u], a close friend of mine gave it to her little girl ([name_u]Jaimie[/name_u]) 7 years ago which made me develop a bit of a soft spot for it. I think it’s best as a standalone name but if you’re keen to add something on, here are some ideas:
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Sage[/name_u] (my friend’s daughter is [name_u]Jaimie[/name_u] [name_u]Sage[/name_u], I think it’s gorgeous!)
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lou[/name_u]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Lark[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Blair[/name_u]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Belle[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Fleur[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]May[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Rue[/name_u]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Rae[/name_u]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_f]Claire[/name_f]
That said, if YOU really love [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u] and aren’t bothered by other people opinions or associations then just go for it I say! She’s your baby and any name you give her will be special because you chose it just for her <3
I immediately thought of [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] [name_u]Lee[/name_u] [name_u]Curtis[/name_u] and then of [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] [name_u]Lynn[/name_u] Spears. I like [name_f]Britney[/name_f] Spears though, so it’s not a bad thing.
It’s hard for me to judge, as I don’t like [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] on girls, but then it seems like a good addition to your list.
I like [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] [name_u]Lynn[/name_u] without the - . As first and middle name. She can be [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] [name_u]Lynn[/name_u] still, but also just [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] (nice name, btw).
