Samm is in Origin.
Samm is a contemporary double-m spelling of Sam, the long-standing short form of both Samuel and Samantha (and occasionally Samson). Samuel comes from Hebrew Shemu'el, interpreted as "God has heard" or "name of God," while Samantha emerged in English in the 18th-19th centuries, likely modeled on Samuel with the feminine element -antha; many treat its meaning as aligned with Samuel's. Because it abbreviates multiple roots, Samm functions as a genuinely unisex name.
Sam has been used in English since at least the 1700s, and by the 19th century it stood on its own as a given name. The streamlined variant Samm appears in late-20th-century records as a way to keep the friendly nickname vibe while distinguishing the spelling. Related forms and variants include Sam, Sammy, Sammie, Sammi, and Sami; longer cognates range across Shmuel (Hebrew), Samuel/Samu (various European languages), Samuele (Italian), and Samuil (Slavic).
