Across the world, សាម៉ាត (សាម៉ាត 
) is a rare predominantly feminine, but scarcely boy's given name. The forename សាម៉ាត is characteristic of South-eastern Asia, particularly Cambodia, where it is quite a rare primarily girly, but very infrequently male name. Much less frequently, សាម៉ាត is the last name as well as the forename.
