The Jim Thread: League of Jims

I had a coworker that liked to call me Terrance for a while. It didn't bother me, but after a few days, I started calling him Davey. That must have hit a nerve because Dave stopped calling me Terrance the next day.

True story

Hang in there, Jim! You'll get it.

 

I didn't know Jacob and Jake are Jims.

 

Actually it's the other way around. James is derived from the Hebrew name Jacob.
So is Diego believe it or not.

 

Which brings us, to the Banana Boat Song. Oh wait that's Day-o.

 

Sorry to hear we lost one of our Jims, @Misphit .

 

Welcome to @Jim Wurbel, newest member of TSD.

 

That explains why they called me Diego in 7th grade Spanish class.

 

I was "James" to the nuns in grade school. Jim, and Jimmy to everyone else...except when my older brother-in-law was present. He was also a "Jim". So, I became "Little Jim" in that situation..

 

Another James/goes by Jim here

I was fun in college, a small group of us Jim's would frequently pass by each other in various places, so everyone around got to relish in the seemingly unending series of "Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim" as we greeted each other in passing.
Not sure what you'd call a group of 4 Jim's, I think we would have had to have 12 or more to qualify as a Jimboree

Also it's fun watching my wife react at "official" moments, such as last week going through the airport (my first time ever flying, went mostly well), as my official name is James, so I had to remember to say that, she just finds it weird though haha

 

@sol92258 a group of 4 Jims is a Jimnasium

 

I am a James that goes by Jimmy.

Lets give this thread a resurrection !!
My father is Senior, I am Junior and My oldest is the third. We have a full trilogy going on.

 

I haven't seen this thread in a long time.....My dad's cousin is named Jim.

 

That was Belafonte singing that, right?(Day-o). Harry, not Jim.

 

Not Jim, but I've got you beat by two generations. I'm IV (4th) and my son is V(5th). We are the only two alive though.
