Sāmagāmoti sāmākānaṃ ussannattā tassa gāmassa nāmaṃ. Yenāyasmā ānandoti ujumeva bhagavato santikaṃ agantvā yenassa upajjhāyo āyasmā ānando tenupasaṅkami.

"Sāmagāma" was the name of that village because of the abundance of wild rice. "Approached the venerable Ānanda" means without going directly to the Blessed One, he approached the venerable Ānanda, who was his preceptor.
