I like James. It’s also on my list cause my grandpas name was James.I don’t like Jamie or Jay, and Jim is okay but Jimmy is adorable.What’s the meaning that could be bothersome though?

The meaning could be considered negative since it essentially means "supercede and replace". Sort of like "cutting in line" or "usurper".

Thanks! I actually don’t mind that meaning, given the context of the biblical story. Kinda serves as a reminder that our name or even birthright don’t define us, but rather our character.That kinda makes me love it more.
