    I found the answer myself after some surfing.

    Feldman did a lot of research on this and finally discovered the answer at the "Just Born" factory. Jimmies were invented by the Just Born company in 1930. Samuel Born was a Russian immigrant who invented the machine that inserted sticks in lollipops, the machine that coats chocolate on ice cream and the extruder that makes Easter "peeps." Jimmies were invented at the Just Born factory and named after an employee, Jimmy Bartholomew, who worked the chocolate pellet machine. Jimmies used to be offered for free at ice cream parlors. The "Just Born" company no longer manufactures jimmies. Feldman says "jimmies" tends to be a word used in the northeastern part of the United States, while "sprinkles" is used in other parts of the country.
