Shaw?[edit]

This is a disambiguation page, for people with the same name. Why in the world is there a reference to Samuel Shaw? Ntsimp (talk) 22:54, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Shaw and Shore are pronounced virtually identically, and we place similar names in the see also section, Boleyn (talk) 06:21, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It never would have occurred to me that these names were at all similar in non-rhotic accents. They're nothing alike in my speech. Thanks for the answer. Ntsimp (talk) 00:45, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge suggestion[edit]

As most Sams are probably diminutives of Samuel, and neither list is very long, I suggest merging Sam to Samuel and converting the former into a redirect. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 01:13, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. I had done this months ago but it was reverted. Not to mention one of the listed entries, Sammy Shore, isn't even a "Sam". AllTheUsernamesAreInUse (talk) 04:36, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
