Jaymes

Jaymes is a modern English variant of James, which itself derives from the Late Latin Iacomus, an altered form of Iacobus, rooted in the Hebrew name Yaakov (Jacob), meaning "supplanter" or "one who follows at the heel." The spelling with a y reflects a 20th- and 21st-century trend of personalizing traditional names through unconventional orthography. James has historically been one of the most prominent given names in the English-speaking world, borne by numerous kings, saints, and apostles. Related forms include Jamie, Jaime, Giacomo, and Hamish.
