No, Came has the long A vowel sound, as in cane and blame. The E is silent. When the vowel sound is the same as saying the actual letter, the letter has the long sound. For example PALE, CEDE, LIME, TONE, TUBE have the sounds, A, E, I, O, U(mostly). Now CAN, BED, TIN, POT, BUN all have the short sound because when you say those words the vowel does not make a sound that is the same as saying the actual letter.
