Popular from Biblical times to the modern day, James is a baby name that may never go out of style—especially considering its current fluidity. Traditionally a boy’s name, James has become increasingly popular as a gender-neutral choice. It means “supplanter,” and derives from the Hebrew Jacob. Throughout history, James has been given to kings, presidents, entertainers, and regular folks alike, and thanks to its adaptability, will probably continue to grace the tops of baby name lists far into the future.
