What kind of person do you think of when you hear the name [name]Sam[/name]? I have been thinking of this name lately ([name]Samuel[/name] nn [name]Sam[/name]). I have a cousin, late 30s, who is just a really smart, awesome hardworking person and I think [name]Sam[/name] is a great solid name. But it is coming back without being trendy.
[name]Do[/name] people think it sounds girly since the name [name]Samantha[/name] nn [name]Sam[/name] is quite popular? Or does it still sound masculine? Thanks!
[name]Love[/name] the name [name]Sam[/name] for a girl. Sounds realy cool.
[name]Sam[/name] is very unisex… but I think it sounds fresher on a girl than boy.
And [name]Sam[/name] doesn’t come off as trendy to me…
I think I hope he has a full name. [name]Samuel[/name] or [name]Samson[/name] nn [name]Sam[/name].
I don’t think it sounds feminine - I know it’s a nickname for [name]Samantha[/name], but I still consider it a boyish nickname in that context.
I love the nn [name]Sam[/name] for a boy, in fact [name]Samuel[/name] was my favorite boys name for a long time. I think it’s classic and handsome!
I think it’s particularly masculine, but that may be because I think of [name]Sam[/name] Winchester (WB’s ‘Supernatural’, played by [name]Jared[/name] Padalecki). Apart from that, I think it’s a classic, timeless name that will age well, appropriate for a baby, teenager and a grown man. I think that [name]Sam[/name] on a girl is very tomboyish, which is part of the appeal of it on a girl to me. I’d go with it (and google [name]Jared[/name] Padalecki).
Very masculine. Timeless, classic, wonderful name. Have always loved it.
To me, [name]Sam[/name] is all boy. [name]Samuel[/name] is one of my favourite names for a boy, actually.
[name]Sam[/name] is all boy to me. When girls use it it just sounds like a girl trying to be boyish. I think it’s “salt of the [name]Earth[/name]”, wipe your hands on your jeans, sort of cowboyish, but not over the top. I also like the nn of [name]Sam[/name] much better than the whole name of [name]Samuel[/name]…go figure.
I think of a girl, I know more girl [name]Sam[/name]'s than boy’s, but it is very popular on both.
I loooove [name]Sam[/name]! I knew the most amazing kid named [name]Sam[/name] and so his characteristics spring to mind - strong, determined, intelligent, and honest. Awesome name and totally boy to me.
My name is [name]Sam[/name] (short for [name]Samantha[/name]), and I love having it as my nn. Most of the Sams I’ve known (male and female) are pretty down-to-earth, creative people (although I have heard it on some preppier girls as well).
I don’t think you can go wrong with [name]Samuel[/name] nn [name]Sam[/name].
Good luck!
