Picking the name of your baby isn't easy - particularly if a boy pops out.
From our point of view, we didn't want to choose anything that might lead to him having a hard time at school (so speaks Barry White, by the way, so talk to me). Equally we didn't want it to be too dull.
And, six and a bit months in, we are still very happy with our choice. Yes, there is no shortage of little Jamies running around but I still think we found something of a gap in the market.
Or to put it another way, I don't think there are that many famous Jamies knocking about. Yes, we all know about Jamie Oliver. And any man who has seen the film Trading Places will be well aware of the existence of Jamie Lee Curtis (yes, a girl). But how many others can you name?
As it's late and I'm nice, I thought I'd save you the trouble of having to think to hard by providing a list of "famous Jamies" I found on'tinternet. And, as you'll see, there really aren't a lot, there are loads I certainly have never heard of and, crucially, there is no-one called Jamie White
So, if we do nothing else for the boy, at least Vanessa and I have given him a chance to make a name for himself.
