If she took the care to look at every extended SSA list from 1880 to 2012 she would probably see that Samantha has made the list every single year. Just because a name isn't in the top 1000 doesn't mean it enjoys use. It just might ... Parthenia is another name that seems to have been used at least 5 times almost every year, but hasn't hit the top 1000 in well over 100 years. Also, I know names like Astrid and Mercy aren't in the top 1000 right now, but in 2012 they were pretty darn close ... less than five more Astrids and Mercys in that year and the two names would have hit the mark.
