Sammie is in Origin.
Sammie is an English diminutive used for Samuel and Samantha, and at times for Samson. The -ie ending reflects common British-American nickname formation. Meaning follows the source: Samuel derives from Hebrew Shemu’el, read as “God has heard” or “name of God”; Samantha is a later English coinage modeled on Samuel, so Sammie there takes Samuel’s sense. From Samson (Hebrew Shimshon), it would echo “sunlike.”
Documented as a pet form in the Anglophone world since the 19th century, Sammie began appearing on records as a unisex given name by the early 20th and saw mid-century use in the United States and United Kingdom. Variant spellings include Sammy, Sammi, and Samy; Samy and Sami also appear in French and international use, though Sami can be an unrelated Arabic name (“elevated”). Related formal names are Samuel, Samantha, and Samson.
