In the gap between Hermitcraft 8 and 9 I went back and watched Impulse's Last Life videos, and I laughed when he apologised in a panic because he'd thought he was calling Jimmy the wrong name all this time 🤣
"Timmy" is one of the best running gags in the Minecraft community imo. Jimmy is a fantastic streamer, and not just Minecraft. Coop games with Joel and Grian are always hilarious.
I only found out Jimmy-Timmy existed because of third life and thought that people misheard Jimmy for Timmy and he was just too polite to correct them 😭
It was for Buildswap, Jimmy had a much more fun one. I think Jim had a monster under the bed trying to make friends, and it's also his birthday. I cant remember the full prompt of Grian's but I think his was a haunted toilet surrounded by other, smaller, toliets
This is making me realize how new most of Grian’s fanbase is as I’ve been non-stop watching Grian since the beginning of Evolution (Not even counting the on and off periods long before that) so this Timmy thing was just normal to me by the time 3rd life came around.
that's probably because a decent chunk of people(including me) are younger. I've been watching since mid-late 2019 I believe (since I remember starting wynncraft early 2020)
yeah, i only just started watching grian a few weeks ago because i love his phasmo vids on grian2 but i’ve been watching back his 2nd life stuff (i’m usually a scott watcher)

I love when a joke name just becomes someone's name. When I joined my friend group, everyone called this boy Adrian "Gaydrian," because he's gay, and I promise they used it affectionately and Adrian thought it was funny, and now that's just an alias for him. It's his name in my phone contacts. I also went through a phase in middle school where I called all my friends by their names spelled backward, and a couple of those have stuck - Lukas is Sakul (rhymes with tackle), and Mason is Nosam. Nicknames are a fun way to show your friends you've enjoyed the time you've spent together.
I still remember the nicknames of my 9th grade friend group- gravy, slushie, muffin, and (myself) doughnut(/bagel, unfortunately) I’m??? Pretty sure the first of those originated from a typo (either slushie or gravy, their actual names were Ashley and Gracie and I don’t remember which happened first) and it just escalated from there. I know I was the cause lol
LOL I thought it was a reference to 3rd life because Grian started calling Jimmy ‘Timmy’ just after he broke the trust circle of passing on a life, so I thought it was something like Traitor-Jimmy = Timmy

@@bananabro1010 I just got reminded of the actual first time I discovered Grian, and it was in a Samgladiator video Now that I think about, I might have known about him for a bit longer than the video I'm referring to. It was thisua-cam.com/video/NeLAHS-dMuo/v-deo.html video btw It has also been 6 years, so times have changed and this vid may appear as cringe
I thought the same thing, to me it looked like he was building a pillar and it was _killing me_ to watch him build it uneven. Had no idea what it was til I checked the comments
I don't watch Timmy, I only know him from the three Last Life series' and I seriously thought his name was Timmy and they just called him by his name because it was easier to call him that that "Solidarity" unlike the other guys who have shorter names like Grian, or Scar, or BDubs. Like, I've legit heard someone, it was either Impulse or Tango call him "Tim". That's actually incredibly funny.
"Trig, why do you call me Dave?! My name's not Dave... my name's Rodney." "I thought it was Dave." "No, it's Rodney." "You sure?" "Yeah I'm positive. I've looked it up on me Birth Certificate and me passport and everything. It is definitely Rodney." "Oh well, you live and learn. So what's 'Dave', a nickname like?" "Noooo! You're the only one who calls me 'Dave'! Everybody else calls me Rodney. And the reason they call me 'Rodney', is because 'Rodney'... is my name."
I never know what his name is. I watch Hermitcraft and 3rd/Last Life, all the hermits go by their YT names and all the non hermits go by their real names, it's confusing, and then add Jimmy/Timmy to the mix!!
I remember first seeing Jimmy on Grians channel, and sometimes they would call him “Timmy” and other times it would be “Jimmy”. I was always so confused and I thought that I was going crazy. It took me too long to figure out it was actually Jimmy
The oldest known kind of egg is 195 million years old and was laid by stem sauropods, the most common dinosaur at the time Chickens are somewhere between 4,000-10,500 years old So unless the question is asking about chicken eggs specifically, then the egg came first. Otherwise I can’t answer that
Could be worse, my nickname was socks from my teacher because my father put my reason to be late as two left socks and my best friend’s name was Buz because she had a moon boot, if you get it you get it. My brother’s nickname for me is Was or Wasmine or Wazzy so you can probably guess my name, his name starts with a W and I have grown to respond to both my nicknames, my friend kinda still gets upset 😂
Lol I literally thought Jimmy and Timmy were 2 different people until I started rewatching 3rd life I think and I realised it and started questioning everything. I think I linked the name Jimmy to his username and Timmy to his mc skin so it took me a while to realise lmao
I got a story for calling someone a different name to their own, It will be long with bad grammar. So in middle school at lunchbreak me and my friend would hangout on the playground even though we could go into the field like the rest of the kids, and the IT support staff worker would sometimes be on playground duty to supervise us crazy children. One day me and my friend found it funny, as we were quite small(probs like 5"0-5"3), that we would try to jump up to this man's height (he was probably over 6"0) and one day he just decided to squat down to our height. Me and my friend were delighted and then proceeded to joke like "are you a new student I've not seen you around before whats your name?" And the man put on a voice and was like "yeah, my names... Billy No mates" and that's the story of how me and my friend would call this school staff member, who was actually called Peter (but it was school so we would usually call him by (Mr. Lastname)), Billy. And this joke went so far that when it was my leaving year, for my schools people would go round and get others to sign their uniform shirts, or a piece of paper as I never brought an extra shirt. I got the one and only IT staff member to sign it and instead of him signing it with his name, bless his heart, he signed it as Billy and honestly it made me tear up inside.
When I was in high school I had a nickname that was just some random name. Kinda like Bob or Jimmy or Billy. One day I got called to the principals office because they legit thought their was some unaccounted for kid hanging around the school they didn't know about. I walked into the principals office and she was leaning back in her chair with her arms crossed like "Do you realize how long we've been trying to figure out who "insert nickname" is!? I'm just like...it's...me? She said....yea we know now....go back to class Only time I ever got called to the principal's office.
I literally said "I don't know wheather his name is Jimmy or Timmy and at this point I'm too afraid to ask" earlier today I guess this answered my question
So glad to have this clarified. I thought his name was Jimmy but he went by Tim. Like he just didn't like the sound of "Jim" for some reason and thought a T would fix it
I never actually knew why they called him so many different names. I would hear ‘Jimmy’ and ‘Timmy’ in videos and just kind of accepted it. I mean they’re not even nicknames for each other but I always knew they were referring to Jimmy without the context. lol
This has caused me a fair amount of frustration. For the last year I have been trying to remember which one is Timmy and which one is Jimmy. I am already so bad with names I did not need this added to it but it is still hilarious
Oh, so Timmy's name originated much like Sgils's weak knees, and henwy's foot licking addiction (Both were just randomly said in a vid, by Biffle and Jerome respectively)
oh my god i was at that convention that is crazy, it feels so weird to hear grian talking about that small vention in ireland after years, i’ve never ever heard of anyone else talk abt it
1. It took me all four Life series to figure out if his real name was Jimmy or Timmy. 2. Hearing that they are friends with NettyPlays has resurrected my inner Stampy-obsessed child.
I legitimately thought that my brain was gas-lighting me into calling Jimmy Timmy sometimes. It was an actual thing this time, my brain wasn't lying to me!
I remember it confused me for a bit because I kept hearing people call him both names quite consistently so I had no idea which one was his real name Until I gave up and just searched his UA-cam channel to find out 😅
I was wondering about that period period because I've noticed a lot of the people call him Jimmy but then there's a few that call him Timmy and I'll and I always wondered what that was about
I'm one of the people who found Jim through Grian's channel, so for several months I genuinely thought his name was Timmy and was so confused when people said otherwise
I'm at that point where I haven't watched Solidarity enough but watched Grian quite a lot and so I know that on of the two names is just not the right one but I nerver can remember which one X)
Reminds me when i believe Impulse kept thinking Jimmy was named Timmy and just went with it until he was corrected. Classic
In the gap between Hermitcraft 8 and 9 I went back and watched Impulse's Last Life videos, and I laughed when he apologised in a panic because he'd thought he was calling Jimmy the wrong name all this time 🤣
Which episode was it? I wanna rewatch it
I can't remember unfortunately. It wasn't the first couple, anyway. You may have to rewatch them all!
HAHAH omg when did he realize, I've gotta find the episode now
If anybody knows please tell me 😂
@vi actually is 45:37
"Timmy" is one of the best running gags in the Minecraft community imo.

Me too
Yeah, I though that too, and had secondhand embarrassment for Grian
Kinda, that's Impulse.
I instantly thought that “Timmy” was like a nickname because I only heard Grian call him that and everyone else i had heard says Jimmy
Ok medium timmy
Lmao so that's why they call him Jimmy! Timothy has so many names now, it's great.

*Why this comment is making me confused or is it just sarcasm*
he also has the name "James" now XD

His name on Mc is now JimmySG xd
So we're not going to talk about the fact that grian is building a giant toilet? no?
I had no clue that’s what he was building
It was for Buildswap, Jimmy had a much more fun one. I think Jim had a monster under the bed trying to make friends, and it's also his birthday. I cant remember the full prompt of Grian's but I think his was a haunted toilet surrounded by other, smaller, toliets
That’s what I thought, too, but I didn’t think that’s what it ACTUALLY was! Dang… should I be proud that I’m right?
its from an old build swap episode, he's building it from a prompt
its from an old build swap vid he should bring those back they were great and they were how I first started watching Grian
This is making me realize how new most of Grian’s fanbase is as I’ve been non-stop watching Grian since the beginning of Evolution (Not even counting the on and off periods long before that) so this Timmy thing was just normal to me by the time 3rd life came around.
that's probably because a decent chunk of people(including me) are younger. I've been watching since mid-late 2019 I believe (since I remember starting wynncraft early 2020)
I miss evo. It was the best series he did imo and it honestly felt like it would never stop. Before he joined the hermits.
yeah, i only just started watching grian a few weeks ago because i love his phasmo vids on grian2 but i’ve been watching back his 2nd life stuff (i’m usually a scott watcher)
I feel ancient, I’ve been watching him since 2015 maybe 2016 evo I never watched but I always loved when he role played with Sam and I watched his building videos all the time

Everyone does ;(
grian also building uneven, my goodness
To be fair, you don't need to worry about the consequences when you don't need a true center for a nice looking toilet build
He’s building a toilet for build swap. It’s supposed to be oval not circular
I thought the same thing, to me it looked like he was building a pillar and it was _killing me_ to watch him build it uneven. Had no idea what it was til I checked the comments
lmao grian was making a toilet
Finding out his name isn’t actually timmy makes this all the better
1:51 Jimmy explains why his name isn't Timmy, but Grian still called him Timmy. RIP + forever Timmy.
So the answer is: For the Lols
And the answer, as always, is Grian.
i genuinely thought his name was timmy for years lol

I was just straight up gaslighted into thinking that Timmy was an acceptable nickname For Jimmy or smth. Like Bob for Robert or Bill for William
I remember first seeing Jimmy on Grians channel, and sometimes they would call him “Timmy” and other times it would be “Jimmy”. I was always so confused and I thought that I was going crazy. It took me too long to figure out it was actually Jimmy
All through double life, I genuinely wondered what he was actually called 😂
Same!
As soon as Grain said EVO, I had an momentary existential crisis...Has it truly been FOUR years!
The three biggest questions this world has:
Do fish drink water?
Did the chicken or the egg come first?
Why does grian call Jimmy Timmy?
The oldest known kind of egg is 195 million years old and was laid by stem sauropods, the most common dinosaur at the time
Chickens are somewhere between 4,000-10,500 years old
So unless the question is asking about chicken eggs specifically, then the egg came first. Otherwise I can’t answer that
Just the Tomohawk mention was enough to bring a smile to my face
This explains so much. I was wondering who Timmy and Jimmy was
I always just thought it was because of the phrase "Little Timmy", used when describing a child playing video games
This actually clears up so much for me XD I was so confused about who Timmy was hahaha
I miss build swap.
its like accidentally calling a neighbor a wrong name and going along with it
I'm pretty sure no nickname can be worse than "Sand daddy" at this point

Well their plan 150% worked because I just found out his name isn’t Timmy
Same, I was really confused why everyone is always calling him a different name
I started referring to Jimmy as Timmy because I followed and still follow Netty and she just called him that casually lol
I watched someone call him "Jimothy" once and was genuinely wondering if that was his name for a while
I 100% thought that was his actual name. Only getting into this weird fandom a few months ago
