Samuel

Hi everyone,

What do you all think of the name Samuel?

Thanks for your input :)

I like it, a good robust name, quite timeless, suits all age groups, an acceptable shortening to Sam.

Good name

I really like it and would have had it on my list had it not been for a rogue family member with the same name!

Fab name. Classic and easy to spell/pronounce. Can't go wrong!

I love it, and it is so perfect to write out by hand (try it!)

Very nice 😊 shortened to Sam is nice too

My very handsome and clever 15yr old son... Not that I'm in any way biased!!! 😂 😂 😂

I'm definitely in the minority, but I really, really don't like the name Samuel.

Lovely name. Less likely to date than some of the other popular names around at the moment.

Biased because I have a Samuel but I love it! At the minute he's Samuel or more often Sammy, but will more than likely become a Sam as he gets a bit older I should think

I love it

One of my favourite names

Also biased, but I love it. Sam is such a great shortening of it too.

Lovely, and so are the derivatives :)

Lovely, one of my fave boys names! It's classic and no longer very popular like it was in the 90's (it's now out of the top 40). I always think the nn Sam sounds so friendly too.

I think Samuel is one of the most popular boys names on here. Everyone always says they love it.
I have to admit I like it too and nearly chose it myself but we opted for something more unusual in the end. Of all the classics it's probably my favourite and it's very friendly sounding.

It's my son's middle name so I love it!

I've always said if I had a boy, I'd call him Samuel

It's a classic, good, solid name

Lovely, friendly name.

I approve

Mine's grown up and I still love it. And he's still known by the full version in the family but Sam everywhere else.

Nice, solid name. Sam is friendly and appealing.

I really like Samuel and it was on our list when I was pregnant with DC1, but I knew it would inevitably be shortened to Sam which I don’t dislike but I much prefer the full name Samuel. Still think it’s a great name though.

I knew a real dick that was named Samuel so it's kinds but me off the name! BUT I recently met a really really lovely Samuel, who went by Sam! Overall, good, solid, friendly name!
