Ha ha, cute. These are all nice names ... including Samantha!


This is almost my exact list of potential names
Who knew I was cultivating a list of the next gen of the baby sitters club lol.

It was on my list, and my top association was also the American girl.

I like it, and I like it's nicknames. I don't think I personally know any, kids or adults (I have 2 kids, ages 4 and 7)

I think it's a good choice.

Not super common now, but doesn't feel too dated IMO.

+1. That’s a positive association for most. I think it’s a nice name and wouldn’t hesitate to use it if you love it.

OP again. This is my primary association, then Bewitched.

Although I’ll never know why AG insisted on categorizing her as Victorian when the British queen died several years before the series began. 😊
