      Jimothy sounds like one of those English sounding names that Chinese people like to give themselves. Like Samanfar

      Wait wtf, the video I’m referencing is almost old enough to vote? God damn it I’m old.

    Same with Robert.

    Do you remain Robert?

    Become boring Bob?

    Rob with one b or Robb with two?

    If you’re feeling whimsical, is it Robby or Robbie?

      And if you’re transitioning, you should probably avoid picking the name Margot

        Funny enough, Margot is part of a family of names that’s even bigger than James and Robert.

        Margot, Marjorie, Marge, Greta, Rita, Megan, Maggie, Gretchen, Maisie, Molly, Peggy… The uniting feature is that all of these names are considered variants of “Margaret,” and this isn’t even a comprehensive list.

    James seems like the least nerdy of the names that have common nicknames. Richard is another one that’s not nerdy.
