About the name Samaria
Samaria belongs to the English & American tradition. Its roots are documented, even though its precise meaning is not recorded in the standard references — an honest gap we prefer to a confident guess.
In the United States, Samaria first appears in Social Security records in 1952. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #1084 in 2007, and in 2024 118 babies received the name — 4,406 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
