How about making it Jameson?
Not sure how popular that is in the UK.
If not I think you should go ahead with James. It’s handsome and classic and I think going with the name you truly love is always more important than popularity.

I love James. It’s not common in the US currently.

I was going to suggest Jameson as well.

If you truly love James I would stick with it. I know how you feel with the popularity thing though. *sigh*

Personally, I love the name James, but I would never use it as a first name because I cannot stand any of the nicknames that someone could possibly come up with (Jamie, Jim, Jimmy, etc), so despite it being popular as such, I would use it as a middle name and find another more uncommon name as a first name.
