I hate it but the name has bad associations for me. There is a mnetter with a young ds called jim

On reflection, I think if I didn't have the horrible association from the name I wouldn't mind it.

James and Jim are fine. Jimmy just makes me think of the unmentionable.

I have a James. At school he's James but we all call him Jimmy at home. He was named after my beloved grandfather who was a James but was called Jim. I wasn't as keen on Jim but jimmy really suits him.
