[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for the (serious) suggestions. I really love Jameson Scott and Jameson Daniel.  I haven't encountered the automatic nick naming in my adult life or even as a child.  My father is James. No one calls him Jim or Jamie not even when he was a child.  On school forms here, they ask the parents to fill out the child's legal name and the preferred name (nickname). It seems disrespectful to shorten someone's given name especially if you are corrected.

As for the whiskey reference, I had never heard of Jameson Whiskey until this board.  However, I assume that the whiskey is named after someone named "Jameson."

Thank you to everyone who offered support. I appreciate it.[/quote]

Just so you are prepared, teenage boys live to be disrespectful to each other.  It is their primary mode of communication.

Name your kid whatever you like, but don't say you weren't warned.  He WILL get the whiskey comments all the time.  Depending on his personality and his ability to handle the shot boys give each other nonstop, he will either get an affectionate nickname or he will be mocked. [/quote]

This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Being mocked because he shares a name with a brand of whiskey? If anything at all, he'll get a high five. It's not like they're naming him Tampax or Vagisil or something. [/quote]
