Is Jammie a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Girls and boys named Jammie: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.
How many people are named Jammie, and how old are they?
5,740 alive in 2026, estimated
That is 89% of the 6,486 Americans ever recorded as Jammie. The median Jammie alive today is 48 years old; half are between 41 and 54.
The 2020 Census counted 4,442 people named Jammie (2,995 women and girls, 1,447 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 5,917 born in the U.S. The Census count is 25% below that prediction. Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.

An estimate, not a count. SSA’s files count people born in the United States who received a Social Security number, so anyone born abroad is not in them; before 1937 most people got a number as adults, and their survival is counted from that age.
Living estimate: SSA births carried forward with the survival rates in SSA’s cohort life tables (2024 Trustees Report) for each birth year and sex. How the estimate is made. Count: Census Bureau, first names in the 2020 Census (released April 14, 2026; names reported 100 or more times, with the Bureau’s disclosure-avoidance adjustment).

States: SSA state file, 1910-2025, published May 8, 2026; births count girls and boys together, and the rank is among girls’ names in the state in 2025. The file leaves out any state and year with fewer than 5 babies of the name, so small states are undercounted; each ratio compares the state’s births of Jammie with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.
How common is the spelling Jammie?
Jammie is a less common spelling of Jamie: SSA has recorded 6,486 Jammie and 359,590 Jamie since 1880.
Of these 8 names spelled alike, given to 430,149 babies since 1880, Jammie is the fifth most given (1.5% of them). In 2025 none of their 928 babies recorded by SSA was a Jammie (SSA lists a name only with 5 or more babies of one sex).
Spelled alike: names in the SSA national file with the same pattern of letters and sounds and at most two letters apart, and Wiktionary’s listed forms; births since 1880 and in 2025, and each name’s peak year, from the SSA national file, published May 8, 2026. Some are separate names, not spellings of one.
