Growing up I always went by the name Jamie, and kids would make fun of me for it. Got called a lot of names, though I don't remember them now. My dad would often call me "Hame" to the exclusion of anything else.

When I started high school, I stopped telling the teachers to call me Jamie instead of the Jameson written on their paper. People started thinking my name was cool instead of making fun of it, and that really helped my confidence.

Some of my close friends will call me by names other than Jameson, but I don't mind. My ex-girlfriend would always call me Jamie, and my best friend used to call me James. All of my family still calls me Jamie, but I like it now. I save that name for people who know me well.
