Sam

• by now, you see I prefer boy names to be short. To the point. Sam speaks to me of good guy and tough guy and not a wimp. SAM could stand for Strong and Manly or Simply a Man.
• Can't be shortened, suits young and old, reminds me of a happy, approachable and thoughtful sole.

Sam is usually a short form of Samuel, but sometimes Samson or other Sam-names. It is used for girls occasionally, usually as a diminutive of Samantha.
