I'd go with the European Jimmy

Any Australians out there able to comment to tell us if Jim-o is a valid nickname?

[–] redwattlebird@lemmings.world 1 points 2 days ago

Nope. We usually shorten the last name instead if it doesn't roll off the tongue easily. Or we name them after a beloved fictional character, eg. jimbob.

[–] Gronk@aussie.zone 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah I've heard jim-o before but I wouldn't say it's super common, things either end in 'oh' or 'ie' to roll off the tongue nicely so jimmie is usually the norm.

What would a Gregg know about this

[–] Aetherion@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

And what of you got named Jim? I mean can they go back to James? Or are they going to stick with Jimmy and Jimbooo?
