james

The twentieth book of the New Testament of the Bible, the general epistle of James.

One of two Apostles, James the Greater and James the Less, often identified with James, brother of Jesus.

Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

A male given name from Hebrew popular since the Middle Ages. Also a common middle name.

[…] And Normans call me James Fitz-James. / Thus watch I o'er insulted laws, / Thus learn to right the injured cause. […]

Heaven only knows why a man with a strong biblical name like James wants to be a president named Jimmy.
