Jamie comes from the Hebrew name Jacob, which means "follower" or "supplanter".

There is a long history of this name. Jamie (or ther variations, such as Jaime) are the English nickname form of James, which comes from the Late Latin name Iacomus. "Iacomus" was derived from Ιακωβος (Iakobos), the New Testament Greek form of the Hebrew name Ya'aqov (which is usually translated as Jacob).

James is usually a male name, but the name Jamie can be male or female.
