I would think nicknames for Gemma/Jemma. So, girl.

Gem for a girl as in Gemma
Jem for a boy as in the nickname for James

Jem in to Kill a Mockingbird was a boy. I often thought of it as a nn for Jeremiah?

However, it seems very feminine. I dont know of any men being named that...

Nickname only.
Gemma nn Gem
James nn Jim/Jimmy

I love Jem as a nickname! My favorite is Benjamin nn Jem (benJAMin), but there's also James and Jeremy as mentioned above. Benjamin nn Jem is more interesting IMO.

Jem/Jemmy has long been a nn for James/Jeremy so that's obviously a boy's name.
Gem like most precious stone names seems more appropriate for a girl.

James nn Jem for a boy. Gemma nn Gem for a girl. If I say just Jem/Gem I would assume those same genders (Jem = boy, Gem = girl).

I think one of Anne of Green Gables' sons was named Jem...remembering from YEARS ago when I read those books so I may be off. but nevertheless that's what makes me think of Jem as a boy name.
