Unfortunately, for Sam, his plans never reached their full and he eventually gave up because he ran out of names. You don't know about the nine other children he had who were called, "Hobbit lad 14", "Hobbit lass 25", "Hobbit Lad 16", "Hobbit lass 34" and so on.

Q - What was Saruman's reaction to the Ent attack?
