nn for Samuel :)

Very tough question as Sam is truly one of my favourite names. However, I would be just naming my son Sam (not Samuel) but I'm torn about not having a formal name so I think I'd more likely use Samantha nn Sam, but w/ the release of Nicole Kidman's "Bewitched" it might become really common again (as it was 15 - 20 years ago).

While I do like Samantha, I have to go with Samuel. It's my favorite Sam name.

I prefer "Sam" on boys, so I'd have to pick Samuel.

I like Samuel but Samantha is on my hate list ... I really don't like it for some reason

I don't like masculine sounding names on females

ooh, tough choice. my hubby just mentioned Samuel for a boy. i don't think you should use both. i think i would choose whichever name was less common in the popularities...i'm guessing that's Samantha (a beautiful girl's name!)

ok i checked and i was wrong...Samantha is used more than Samuel...

Tough choice because I also like both. I'd go with Samuel for a boy though. Maybe he'd be willing to use a similar sounding name for a girl. Such as Savannah or Sabrina.

I like both names, but definitely don't use them of you do have a son and daughter. That'd be horrible.

I prefer Sam on a boy, as a nn for Samuel.

I don't really like the name Samantha, but you could compromise like Sarena said. Samuel if it's a boy and Samantha if it's a girl. Whichever comes first. Or perhaps there is another boys name that you two can agree on?

I kinda like both but because my name is Samantha, I prefer Samuel

Well, maybe you could use Samuel if it's a boy, and Samantha if it's a girl? I like both names, but if I had to pick, I'd choose Samuel.
