Sonamy

Sonamy is the het ship between Sonic and Amy from the Sonic the Hedgehog fandom.

Canon
In most canons, Amy is shown to love Sonic. However, Sonic rarely is shown returning these feelings.

Games
Amy is in love with Sonic and tries to do anything in order to make Sonic fall in love with her. Despite the fact that Sonic tries to run away from Amy all the time, he still cares for Amy, just not in a romantic way.

Manga
In the early 1992 Shogakukan manga, Nicky (Sonic's alter ego) is dating a brown hedgehog called Eimi (an early version of Amy Rose). Eimi also has feelings for Sonic and both Nicky and Eimi are unaware of the fact that Sonic is in fact Nicky.

Sonic X
Their relationship is similar to the games but there are also scenes where Sonic might return the feelings.

Archie Comics
Their relationship is similar to the games. At one point, Sonic and Amy start dating but their relationship doesn't last long and it turns back into the one-sided relationship it used to be.

Sonic Boom
Amy has a crush on Sonic but unlike the games, she is not obsessive, and Sonic is shown to possibly return the feelings.

Games
Sonic CD Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) Sonic Unleashed Sonic and the Black Knight
 * Amy hugs Sonic every time she approaches him.
 * In one of the last missions of the game (called "The Test of Love"), Sonic will have to choose between Amy and Elise quickly. If the player chooses Amy, the priest in the place will tell them: "I see. You've chosen your long-time love."
 * Amy once finds Sonic in Spagonia at night where she hurried to hug him. As she looked at Sonic, however, she could not recognize him due to him who was in his Werehog form. Believing he was a stranger, Amy apologizes and flees, inadvertently depressing Sonic.
 * Later, when a multitude of people were possessed by Dark Gaia, Sonic fights the minions of Dark Gaia, and then helps Amy from behind. When she turns to look at him, he looks down, evidently ashamed of her Werehog form and then flees, but Amy still recognizes him.
 * When Amy discovers that Sonic has become a Werehog, she tells Sonic that, being Werehog or not, she still loves him.
 * During a conversation with Amy's doppelgänger of the World of Camelot (Nimue), Sonic seems to flirt with Nimue, and she seems remarkably surprised.
 * At the ending, Sonic tells Amy the story of what had happened. Amy then replies by saying that it was an excuse to forget a supposed date and proceeds to attack him with her hammer. This implies that they were supposed to go out on a date together.

Fanon
Sonamy is one of the most popular, if not the most popular, pairing in the Sonic series. Its most common rival ship is Sonally. Sonamy is notably more popular among fans of the games, Sonic X or Sonic Boom, as Sally does not appear in them while Amy does.
