        Primarily seen as a publicity vehicle for late-year releases, the awards show and its promoters have lately made pretensions to Oscar oracling: Jamie Foxx won the “breakthrough actor of the year” prize for “Ray” in 2004, after all, and Paul Haggis and his ensemble cast were honored for “Crash” four months before it won best picture.

      • 2010, Alexander McCall Smith, The Importance of Being Seven, Polygon, →ISBN, page 112:

        "Let's choose something simple. Children with simple names are never embarrassed with them. How about Jamie?"

   2. A female given name from Hebrew derived from James, of modern American usage.
