In the New England region of the USA, sprinkles are often referred to as jimmies (either chocolate or colored). It has been suggested that this comes from Jim Crow, due to the original chocolate coloring.
Yikes, I'll stick to calling them sprinkles!

I've never known them as anything other than sprinkles. I have never heard the term jimmies. It might depend on what part of the county you live in.

Actually it's a candy confection you add (sprinkle) on top of the icing on cakes, cupcakes, etc.
