Actually that book is a good reason not to call your ds Sam - someone will buy you Green Eggs and Ham when he is one and it will be his favourite book and it is really long...

PeachyClair · 20/04/2006 20:10

I have a samuel, it goes down well and there's only one other ion his year which isn't the end of the worls.

It's also a friendly name which can be serious too Sam / Samuel) so it gets my vote even after 6 years of yelling it

PeachyClair · 20/04/2006 20:11

Notasheep- our Sam's nickname is Sam Spam, he even has a Spam logo t-shirt Grin

PeachyClair · 20/04/2006 20:13

'what about Barry or Garry?
Simon or Alvin?
Kerry or Gerry? '

just remember, we're becoming an increasing litigious culture, and I'd bloody sue if I was given one of these names!
