Meaning & Story
A feminine variant of Jamie, itself a pet form of James, from the Hebrew Yaakov meaning 'supplanter' or 'may God protect'.
Jami is warm, approachable, and effortlessly friendly — a name that feels like a hug. It's for the pet who makes friends instantly, who has never met a stranger and never will. The simplified spelling gives it a casual, unpretentious quality that suits a laid-back companion perfectly. Jami is the name for the dog at the center of every social gathering or the cat who actually likes house guests.
