I grew up in Boston. We always called them jimmies. The first time I heard sprinkles, I wasn't sure what it meant. Thought it was something else LoL.

My parents and grandparents called them Jimmie’s or rainbow Jimmie’s lol

Exactly! Never sprinkles. Always jimmies 😊

I read way too much about the history of Jimmie’s on wiki, since that’s who I am as a Person, and New England and Philly are the only places we commonly call any sprinkles “Jimmie’s” in America.
