proper noun 1. (name) a. Jaime James is a very common name for boys.Jaime es un nombre muy común para niño. b. Santiago My parents were going to name me James, but chose John instead.Mis padres me iban a llamar Santiago, pero escogieron Juan en vez. c. Diego Hi! My name is James!¡Hola! ¡Me llamo Diego! d. Jacobo (especially British monarchs) King James I of England was also King James VI of Scotland.El rey Jacobo I de Inglaterra fue también el rey Jacobo VI de Escocia. Copyright © Curiosity Media Inc. Santiago would not be equivalent to James; you're right, that would be "heavy handed." Iago by itself would be equivalent, though. So Susan James would be Susan Iago, and Susan St. James would be Susan Santiago (santo iago; sant iago). Diego makes it even worse to understand, because the "D" in Diego really and properly belongs to the word San, as a "t". In the USA we are so used to the Californian names of San Francisco, San Rafael, San Bernadino for "Saint" Francis, etc., that we naturally presume, with a city named San Diego, there was a Saint Diego. See, though, if you follow suit with San Francisco, you'd have San Iego (Iago/Yakob/Iacom/James). Its a mess, and nobody bothers, and you're not going to be able to formally change a city name (well, you can, but not usually one with 1.3 million people in it), AND in the meantime since consonants got pushed around over the last couple centuries, there's probably been somebody out there given the inaccurate name "Diego" who actually received sainthood! As an humorous aside, if all that was done in making San Diego's name etymologically correct was to move the "D" (the soft "t") back to the word for saint, it would come out as Sand Iego, and folks would just presume the city name referred to something unique about their nice beaches. I tried researching this and it seemed like the history of the mutation, 'Diego' is a little uncertain. Maybe my research was insufficient. But the version 'Diego' goes back a long way, because Portuguese also has it, as Tiago. 'Santiago' is transparently 'Santo Iago'. Nevertheless, the name in Spanish for the apostles is now Santiago. There are two apostles named James/Santiago. San Diego was a medieval Spaniard. Actually, even in Spanish the name is really Iago, because you can't say 'San Santiago'. But we're not allowed to write and say this name bare. In the Spanish language, you can write or say any other apostle's name without the 'San'. Of course you can name your son Mateo, etc. without the 'San'. For some goofy reason, not so with 'Iago'. In Portuguese, however, the name of these two apostles is Tiago. Tiago corresponds to both Diego and Santiago.
