Jeramy

Meaning of Jeramy

The name Jeramy (pronounced JER-uh-mee /ˈdʒərəmi/) constitutes an Anglicized variant of the Hebrew name Jeremiah—originally Yirmeyahu—signifying “Yahweh will exalt” or “appointed by God.” As a distinct orthographic form of Jeremy, itself a medieval contraction of the biblical appellation, Jeramy carries connotations of divine mandate and leadership within Judeo-Christian heritage. Demographic records in the United States reveal that its contemporary usage remains infrequent—ranking 919th in 2024 with only five recorded occurrences—yet this modest persistence in national registries attests to its enduring, if specialized, appeal among parents seeking a name that balances historical gravitas with phonological accessibility. Phonetically, Jeramy exhibits a trisyllabic structure with initial stress, conforming to standard English phonotactics and ensuring clear pronunciation across Anglo-American contexts.
