    BW will elaborate after school, but Gem/Jem in any form is out due to family naming (SIL has a Sim and Jem, she already cops flack for Sam being too close to Sim - throwing Jem in the mix will be way too messy! lol)

    Thanks, BG. Yup, the family already has a Simeon, so Simon, Simone and Simeon are all out. We also have a Jemima so that's out and when we went so close to Simeon before I don't think it would be appreciated if we went so close to Jemima as well - it's a shame as I love Gemma and would LOVE a Gem... And it's not like they are distant relatives, either.

    Jeremy - the name of an ex-boyfriend (Simon, too) and that just feels kind of icky.

    Do you think the *EM would work for girls... I can't think of any names, unfortunately! *EM doesn't feel right for boys.

    Anyway, must get back to work!

    what about Emmet?

    i know a few kids with M as first initial that just get "M" as nn - no diff to "Emm" really if you're pronouncing it. don't know it looks right when writing it though

    Love the idea!!

    My xp's initials were S.A.M- and his name was SAMUEL

    I dont know if these have been suggested sorry if they already have.

    J.I.M - n/n for the name James- for eg. James Ivan .....?

    C.A.M or K.A.M? - For Cameron

    S.I.M- For Simon

    T.O.M - For eg. Thomas Oliver ....?

    T.I.M - For eg. Timothy Ivan .....?

    Im sorry i have no idea for girls. Good Luck

    This is like playing a crazy word game. I was awake at 5am thinking of combinations (I know I need a life...)

    How about

    AIM - Aimee/Amy Isabelle, Amelia Isabelle, Amirah Isabelle
    SUM - Summer Ursula (might need to find some lovely African spiritual U name)

    Then things just go down hill:

    ELM - Elmo Liam, Elmer Lincoln....
    URM - Urma Rose....

    Off to get a life now
