Jesse James), and the "y" or "ie" is interchangable for girls. It's more in how you pronounce it than how you spell a nickname - it's how you SPELL given names that makes their lives hell on earth........and it's the ones who put y's everywhere but where they DON'T belong who are having self-identity issues and are foisting them off on their children! This, in my book, makes YOU perfectly normal! LOL
Actually, my twins are Jessica and James. Jessy and James.
I always make sure to say James and Jessy so to avoid that reference. Or we also call him Jay. We just really liked the names.

My maiden name was Butt. (actually that came up a few pages back!) Before everyone had caller ID and *69, we would get prank phone calls for "Harry" all the time. We also got calls for Anita, Seymour, and a few others I can't remember just now. Not any real original kids out there. No one by those actual names in my family though. My dad did have a cousin who changed his last name to Butler because he was marrying a woman named Candy.
