A dashing alternative to the popular James and Jacob, Jago is the jaunty Cornish form of the Biblical names. Occasionally (or historically) appearing as Jagoe, Jego, and Jaego, it may have been adapted from the Welsh Iago (YAH-gaw).
 
Typically pronounced as JAY-go, it has been notably borne by a legendary king of the Britons, by archaeologist Jago Cooper, and by a minor Tolkien character, Jago Boffin. Appearing in the England and Wales Top 1000 since at least the 90s, a recent year saw it appear at #639 alongside names like Landon, Cosmo, Kieran, and Ivo. 
 
Very occasionally, Jago might be used as an alternative spelling to the Spanish Yago (also a form of Jacob/James).

Jemima, the name of a strong and beautiful Biblical daughter of Job, has long been among the chicest choices of aristocratic Brits, and has since shifted to be used more generally too, replacing Gemma/Jemma as a way to nickname "Jem". In a recent year, it featured in the England and Wales Top 500.
 
Brought into common English usage by the Puritans, alongside her Biblical sister, Keziah, Jemima is often interpreted as meaning "dove", likely from yona. However, it may be more accurate to say it relates to yomam meaning "daytime" or "day-by-day", which are equally bright and lovely. 
 
Some famous (and notably British) namesakes are Beatrix Potter's Jemima Puddle-Duck and characters in Chitty, Chitty, Bang Bang, Cats, Thackeray's Vanity Fair, and Elizabeth Gaskell's Ruth.
 Jemima was well used by the Puritans, as was that of her sister, Keziah. Some other famous namesakes A real-life bearer is Jemima Kirke, who plays Jessa on Girls(and who happens to have a sister named Domino and a son named Memphis). Jemimah is a variant spelling, as seen in the Antonia Fraser crime series Jemimah Shore Investigates.
 
In the US, however, Jemima is not so well used. Despite its appealing sound and Biblical nature, it is often dismissed due to the problematic association with racial stereotyping, exemplified by the Aunt Jemima brand of pancakes. In a recent year, 54 girls were named Jemima, while Dove was given to nearly 130, and Jemma to 370.

Jaunty, to say the least, Jonty might be an option if Johnny feels too old school. It has been noticed most often on the playing fields, as in U.K. rugby player Jonty Parkin (born Jonathan) and South African cricketer Jonty Rhodes (Jonathon).
 
It did rank in the UK Top 1000 in the 2000s.

Sometimes referred to as the poshest British baby names, Telegraph Names are those that feature in the London-based Telegraph newspaper. 

Associated with the so-called upper-crust society (including lords, ladies, judges, members of parliament, solicitors, and wealthy business owners), these names range from familiar, popular, and classic, to dramatic and long, totally old-fashioned or totally quirky. 

This list features a selection of both first names and middle names that have appeared on the Telegraph Birth Announcement pages in recent years.
