History & Origin

Jamiee is an elaborated spelling of Jamie, the friendly short form of James. James descends from Hebrew Yaakov (Jacob), long read as 'supplanter' or 'holder of the heel'. Jamie became a stand-alone girls' name in the later twentieth century, and Jamiee is a spelling flourish on it.

This spelling stayed small: only a couple dozen girls a year, with a high point around 1994 and a run continuing thinly into the twenty-tens. A girl named Jamiee then is around thirty now. It travels with the many Jamie and Jaime spellings of its era rather than standing out on its own.

Did you know? Jamiee is Jamie with an extra 'e'; the name behind it, James, goes back to Jacob, the Hebrew name traditionally read as 'supplanter'.
