To her surprise, when Jones shared her musings with her family, they informed her that Jim is, indeed, a diminutive of James. This revelation left the Mad Men star 'furious' and questioning how the name Jim emerged from James. She humorously mentioned the fleeting thought of "Jimothy" crossing her mind during the process.
Jones wrote:
“Last night I spent a good 30 minutes laying in bed pondering the name Jim. Like, what a weird name."
"It’s not short for anything, it doesn’t mean anything. Imagine if Rose’s love interest in Titanic was named Jim, would you even care if he froze? Prob not."
“I relayed these thoughts to my family this morning and my mom said that Jim is short for James and I’m furious, how did someone get to Jim from James? So stupid."
"I’m so ashamed that the word Jimothy was in my brain for a few minutes. I can never get that time back.”
“And sorry to the Jims, I mean no disrespect. Also sorry to my family for how I am."
