原文: Jemima Rooper is an English actress. Born in Hammersmith, London, Rooper is the daughter of TV journalist Alison Rooper. She attended Redcliffe Primary School in Chelsea and the Godolphin and Latymer School. While working on The Famous Five, she passed eight GCSEs with A* and A grades. From there she went to MPW sixth form college where she got three A-grade A levels. Rooper bought her first home at the age of 19.
原文: Personally, I love the sweetness and warmth of this name; there's something so lovely and classic about it. Unfortunately cultural associations have largely ruined it for me, especially in the US. If I remain in the UK, however, I could very well see myself considering it as a middle name.
原文: A very ugly name. Anyone with this name in the USA would be teased mercilessly, especially if they were black. Other black people would be all like "daaang... was your mama tryin' to say you're some kinda kitchen negro who cooks for massah?!?"

翻译文: 这是一个独特,漂亮,总是被忽视的名字! Jem或Mimi可能是好的昵称。
原文: This is such a unique, pretty, always-overlooked name! Jem or Mimi could be good nicknames.
原文: I'm called Jemima and although I've never been teased because of it it's always embarrassing to tell people my full name. I usually stick to the nickname Mima (although this is childish) because I've grown up with it, even to the extent that most people don't know my full name. There aren't many nicknames for Jemima, Jem, Mima, and Jay(this is my favourite and is American). Sometimes it's also easier to shorten it to Jemma to be less embarrassing.
原文: I may very well be wrong, but I was always told by my mother that the reason we have "Aunt Jemima" syrup in the U.S. is that Brits and those that colonized the early United States named their servants and slaves Christian names from their own tradition, such as Jemima. As such, I think it is a beautiful name for all that has contributed to its history. Also, my parents almost named me Jemima and I often wonder if they perhaps should have gone through with it. Beautiful, unique name!
原文: One of the blonde twins from Catherine Jinks' "Evil Genius" is named Jemima and nicknamed Jem. Her sister is named Niobe and nicknamed Ni, so when they are introduced by their nicknames it sounds similar to Gemini. They seem to enjoy introducing themselves as Gemini, actually.

翻译文: 这是我最好的朋友的名字和个人我爱它。我来自英格兰,在那里它不与姬姬ima或任何其他东西有关。当我听到Jemima的名字,我想到了Chitty Chitty Bang Bang的甜美无辜的女孩。它是非常独特和英国,我认为这是一个辉煌的名字。我的朋友Jemima从来没有对她的名字戏弄或欺负,她是我知道的唯一的 - 独特的。
原文: This is my best friends name and personally I LOVE it. I am from england where it isn't associated with Aunt Jemima or anything else. When I hear the name Jemima I think of the sweet innocnt girl from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It is very unique and british and I think it is a brilliant name. My friend Jemima has never been teased or bullied about her name before and she is the only one I know - unique.
原文: Does anyone else google name combinations of children that haven't been conceived yet? Today I googled Jemima Pearl thinking what a cute little baby she'd be. Turns out she's a punk singer- not a bad one though, kind of an early Go-Go's sound to her, but still. I can't name my pretend daughter that anymore. Sigh.

翻译文: 我不喜欢这个名字。它让我想起了姬姆玛。
原文: I don't like this name. It makes me think of Aunt Jemima.
原文: I am all for out-of-the-spotlight names... But perhaps "Jemima" is out for good reason. It simply has a very classless feel and pronunciation. Not to mention the ever-so evident "Aunt Jemima Maple Syrup," which I am unable to free my mind of (it is not even true syrup-- ick). As always, I would much prefer this name over many others that parents have dubbed their poor children.

翻译文: Jemima是一个可爱的名字,但让我想起了来自Playschool的Jemima娃娃。
原文: Jemima is a cute name, but reminds me of Jemima the doll from Playschool.
原文: I wouldn't use this name, at all. It reminds me too much of maple syrup, the word "mime" is in it (mimes can be really, really creepy), and it's TOO old fashioned. A kid would be teased constantly if they had this one. A variation might work, like some of the ones listed above.
原文: Myself being the only Jemimah I've ever known, I can say from these comments that I wish I had lived in Britain to have been dubbed with the upperclass mark or at least the association with Jemima Puddleduck. Having grown up in the States and constantly chastized about pancakes, my name became J, which later in my college and professional life I converted to Jae.
原文: This name is quite beautiful. I love the meaning, and it's not overused. However, I don't like the association with Aunt Jemima, which has pretty much ruined this gorgeous name in America.
原文: I know four girls (born late 80s/early 90s) named Jemima and they all go almost exclusively by the nickname Jem. Younger children tend to say Mima or Mimey. I really like this name.
原文: No. Just - no! It's a cute name, granted, but in the real world little Jemima will probably be teased mercilessly for having such a goofy, upper-class, old-fashioned name. Do you really want to lumber your child with the nickname "Jemima Puddleduck" for life?!

翻译文: 这个名字是可怕的可怕 - 这是那么糟糕,它让我大声笑!
原文: This name is hilariously horrible- it's so bad, it made me laugh out loud!
原文: Aside from the Aunt Jemima syrup there is Jemima Brown from The Eiger Sanction.

翻译文: 尽管是圣经的,这个名字其实是相当不错的。我认为Jemina这个名字是这个名字的一个漂亮的版本,它实际上是一个芬兰名字(发音为YE-mina),虽然不是很常见。唯一的Jemina我听说过的主唱歌手Jemina珍珠从肮脏的青少年乐队Be Your Own Pet,不幸的是。你可以使用那一个,如果这一个听起来太像姨妈Jemima字符,我,作为一个出生在80年代中期的芬兰人,我不熟悉。
原文: Despite being Biblical, this name is actually quite nice. I think the name Jemina, however, is a prettier version of this name, and it's actually a Finnish name (pronounced YE-mina), although not a very common one. The only Jemina I've heard of is the lead singer Jemina Pearl from the crappy teen band Be Your Own Pet, unfortunately enough. You could use that one if this one sounds too much like the Aunt Jemima character, which I, as a Finn born in the mid-80s, am unfamiliar with.

翻译文: 我认为这是一个可爱的名字。我想起了Chitty Chitty Bang Bang的女孩,当我读这个名字,所有甜,无辜和迷人的英国。我真的很喜欢这个意思,“鸽子”。
原文: I think this is a lovely name. I think of the girl in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang when I read this name, all sweet and innocent and charmingly British. And I really like the meaning, "dove," too.

翻译文: 我很惊讶没有人提到Jemima Puddleduck,从Beatrix Potter书。
原文: I'm astounded nobody's mentioned Jemima Puddleduck, from the Beatrix Potter books.
原文: Daniel Boone's daughter was named Jemima. Her capture by and rescue from Native Americans was the historical basis for James Fenimore Cooper's "The Last of the Mohicans". In the Thomas Pitt series by Anne Perry, Pitt's daugter is named Jemima.
原文: I think Jemima sounds lovely, but unfortunately it is occasionally used as a racial slur towards African-Americans. This is reason enough for me to put it on my "if only" list.

翻译文: Beatrix Potter的角色是Jemima Puddle-duck。
原文: A character from Beatrix Potter is Jemima Puddle-duck.
原文: Sarah Brightman (and in the video, Veerle Casteleyn) played the role of Jemima in Cats. This is a pretty name, but I don't like the pronunciation "je- MIE-ma"; it sounds too much like Aunt Jemima. I pronounce it "je-MEE-ma".
