James for a girl? Believe it or not, this is one of the boy names for girls" gaining a lot of attention these days, since Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds shocked the world by choosing it for their eldest daughter in 2014 (after his late father).

Since then, it's become something of a celebrity baby middle name du jour, with high-profile parents including Coco Rocha, Kristin Cavallari, Nev Schulman and Brandon Jenner all having daughters with James in the middle spot.

She could be born in the early 90s as a normal person or in 2019 as the nepo baby of insufferable celebrities

I see what you mean but that is not the point I was making. It would be a bit ridiculous if there was a female agent that is now called James Bond, even if James is a legitimate girl's name. In particular I was trying to say that there is a better way of doing it, by having another 007 that is a different person, with a different name.

It's like when we have Peter Parker, Miles Morales and Gwen Stacey. They are all Spidermen but not exactly the same character and it works. Now, I feel like it might be weird to some if instead of Gwen we would have Petra Parker.
