It is a military thing, (as well as a P.E. teacher thing ) to call people you don't know well or only have a working relationship with by their last names. It's not at all disrespectful, and I think if they were in a more formal situation, say in D.C. with senators and such, Cam would probably call him Dr. Jackson... 'cause it's appropriate. That's just the way he is.
I found it kind of jarring to hear him call Daniel by his last name, but I'm getting used to it quickly, and never had a "problem" with it. It was just unexpected at first.
And I think he calls Sam Sam because she probably told him to call her that... she usually tells EVERYONE to call her that... when she visited him in his hospital room. They may have socialized a bit since then, but I doubt it was more than once or twice, or he woulda known that she was being transfered out of the SGC. Don't want to ramble on about the possible extent of their "relationship" at this point, so I'll just leave it at that.
