Help[Opinions] Re: Samantha
in reply to a message by Caroline
To me, Natalie and Amanda are "classics"* while Samantha is more "80's". However, I actually like Samantha better than those other names.
I have a cousin named Samantha 'Sam'. I like Sam and Samantha. I think they both have a better feel than a lot of the names from that era-- they don't sound bossy or girly or anything. They sound like names that would belong to an honest sort of person (unlike Jennifer, Melissa, etc). Samantha is slightly earthy and Sam is slightly athletic IMO.
*(relatively. Obviously not as classic as some other names, but they seem to have more of a range of when they were popular. I wouldn't be surprised to meet a Natalie or Amanda of almost any age.)
