Sammie Origin and Meaning

The name Sammie is a boy's name.

Sammie is traditionally a diminutive form of Samuel or Samantha that has evolved into a standalone masculine name (though it's used for both genders). With Hebrew origins through Samuel, meaning 'heard by God' or 'name of God,' Sammie carries warm, friendly associations. The name has an approachable, unpretentious quality with its informal '-ie' ending. It peaked in popularity during the early 20th century in the United States and has experienced occasional revivals. Sammie offers a cheerful, youthful energy that some parents find appealing, though others may prefer it as a nickname. Its familiar sound and spelling make it instantly recognizable while remaining less common than Samuel as a formal name.
