I'm also named Jeremy. Always had other people pronounce my name and spelled it wrong (who the heck spells it Jeramy?). Little kids always pronounced my name wrong by calling me Germany when addressing me. Still like my name though.
My name is Jeremy and I have always wondered why I don't know any older people, born before the mid 70s, named Jeremy. It'seems like a trend that was popular in the 70s and 80s.
This is my puppies name.... I was always told it meant Marijuana but I loved the name'so much I didn't care :)
People spell it wrong all the time. They write "Jermey or Jeremey" all the time. It's annoying.

My name is Jeremy. My father-in-law (and a lot of other people) call me "Jerry" because they hear it wrong, or they shorten it to "Jer" which I hate. As a result I find myself pronouncing it "Jair-uh-mee" when introducing myself. People have a very difficult time spelling it.
i've met quite a few Jeremy's and they all are very emotional and touchy. I suggest that if you don't want to have to tip-toe around your child, Jeremy Isn't the name for you. However, I think It'sounds pretty to say.

I think the name Jeremy is a very strong name and would be great for both a little boy and a grown man. I know a guy named Jeremy who is very outgoing, but also has a very sweet side to him. I always have pictured someone named Jeremy with dark brown hair and bright blue eyes. It's a very handsome name, and i hope to name one of my children Jeremy someday.
