So my name is Dean and my brothers name is Sam. We were born 13 years apart. My parents claim that it’s because they didn’t want me to be alone when they were gone but my running theory is that Sammy was a stray bullet (in the best way though love you bro). Anyways my name is not because of the show Supernatural I know that as I was born before the show aired. Either way it wouldn’t be the case as my parent aren’t that big into shows or TV. I asked my dad once why the name Dean and he said it sounded cool and like an authority figure and I didn’t dig deeper. I started watching Supernatural when I was 10 because one of the brothers had my name which I thought was awesome. Around 2 years later my parents announced that I would have a sibling which I was super excited about and than later when it was revealed that I would have a brother I just knew what I had to do. So Sam was born. My parents weren’t aware of the show then but they definitely are now. They even asked me years later if the show was the reason I suggested the name Sam in the first place but I just denied it as I thought it was a bit silly naming my brother after a character so we would match a a fictional brother duo but yeah I totally did that. I don’t think my parents believe me anyway but they didn’t ask more questions. I can’t wait to watch Supernatural with him though I’m sure he will love it.

As someone who has watched the show and absolutely loves it, I would also name my new baby brother Sam if my name was Dean. If another was to be born then I would name him Castiel. Then, if any one of the two acted out or started to annoy me I’d be playfully calling them Crowley!
I think it’s a great story. Naming your brother Sam to match the duo is a cool connection. Hope you both enjoy the show!
I named my son after Ron Swanson from the show Parks and Recreation.
I don’t try to hide it.
I watched that show 3 times. Last time was with my kid who is now 11. He said that he wants to watch again, next year. We have 2 guinea pigs named rowena and crowley, a turtle named castiel, the two budgies we had (lucifer and lilith) died unfortunately . So yeah, that’s a great show!
lmao this is awesome
