Girl's name with same feel as Sam?

[KevinandRainbowlina]

Apart from Samantha

Just after opinions of what an equivalent name would be. If you think it's boring, let me have an equally dull name!

Tamara?

Lucy

Jo
Bobbie
Jess
Debbie

Kim
Lauren

Tess

What is it you like about Sam, that it’s short? That its unisex or something else? Francesca shortened to Frankie? Charlotte shortened to Charlie?

Lou (Louisa/Louise/Eloise)
Jo (Joan/Joanne/Joanna/Jolene)
Max (Maxine)
Tom (Tomasina/Thomasina)
Fran (Frances/Francine)

Thank you!

Joe is on the boy's shortlist, so that's interesting. Lucy and Jess do feel similar. Tamara is more unusual, almost exotic to me (perhaps I don't get out much!)

Rachel

To me it says biblical, so

Rebecca
Rachel
Sarah
Judith
Hannah
Miriam

I was going to say Pam
Tammy
Laura
Alexandra

I actually had no idea until just now that I appear to like girls names that can be shortened to unisex or boy's names. Frankie is particularly nice.

Leah

Jessica
Kimberly
Joanna
Petra

But also the biblical names are lovely and strong.

Alex?

DD 8 has 3 friends called Sam. They have sisters Jess, Charlotte, Polly and Eleanor.

I love Billie for a girl

Jess

Eva

Megan
Chloe

Or if you like unisex names:
Robin
Billie
Drew
Glen

Amy
Beth
Olivia
Jade
Emily
Mia
Layla
Gemma
Louise
Zoe
Laura
Lauren
Mae/may
Rose

If you like girl's names that can be shortened to boy's names:
Roberta / Robyn - Bob or Bobby
Francesca - Frankie
Michaela - Micky
Charlotte - Charlie
Jacqueline - Jack
Jordanna - Jordan
Charlene / Leonora / Jolene - Lenny
