631.0. "Samantha!!" by HITPS::FADDEN () Thu Jan 17 1991 19:29

    
    
    
    I put a note in awhile ago requesting the history of the name Samantha.
    Unfortunately noone replied (It was an "old" note).
    
    Does anyone know what the name means? I know it's probably a derivative
    of Samuel, but I'd like to know more.
    
    Thanks, I appreciate it!
