'''Samantha''' is a popular [[female]] [[given name]]. It might have been intended to be a female form of [[Samuel]] with the addition of the female name [[Anthea]]. However it does not retain the original meaning of [[Samuel]] because it is not actually a [[Hebrew]] name. It is sometimes claimed that Samantha means "listener" in [[Aramaic]], but the evidence for this is weak.[http://www.behindthename.com/php/view.php?name=samantha] |

Samantha, often shortened to Sam, Sami, Sammi, Sammie, or Sammy, is a relatively new name arising in the latter part of the 18th century. |
