History & Origin

Theodorejames is a two-name compound, not an inherited single name — Theodore and James recorded together. Theodore comes from the Greek Theodoros, 'gift of God,' borne by saints and emperors; James descends from the Hebrew Yaakov through Latin Iacomus and belongs to two apostles. Written as one field it is a modern administrative pairing, and we flag that honestly (said 'THEE-uh-dor-jaymz').

It appears only extremely rarely for boys in the U.S., almost always as a joined first-and-middle pair. Rare, classic in parts, modern as a whole.

Did you know? Theodorejames is really Theodore James written without a space — a first-and-middle pair recorded as one field. Theodore is Greek for 'gift of God'; James goes back to the Hebrew Yaakov. We say that plainly rather than treat it as one traditional name (said 'THEE-uh-dor-jaymz').
