From the Ecclesiastic Late Latin Iacomus, an evolution of Iacobus which is from the Ecclesiastic Iakōbos, a cognate of the Hebrew Yaakov. The name has its root in ya`aqob (supplanting, seizing by the heel). Some say Iacomus arises from an error in the transcription of manuscripts from the Greek to the Latin by an early monk. Short: Jim. Pet: Jamie, Jimmy.
In the modern day English Jimmy can be referred to someone who cannot help but tell everyone about his new and recent purchases to anyone who will listen (or not). Jimmy's are known for there mild mannered personalities which makes them very good at being used.
It is common to find them around agricultural areas mucking out stables, tending to chickens or walking their pets.
They have been known to clock watch when with other males due to always feeling as if they should be doing something else other than enjoying themselves.
