Named in memory of the movie actor James Cagney (1899-1986). Although he played tough-guy roles in numerous gangster movies, Cagney was also a talented singer and dancer, and in 1942 he won an Academy Award for his portrayal of showman George M. Cohan in Yankee Doodle Dandy. Name suggested by G. V. Williams, who made the identifications for this minor planet.
