Is this a dogs name?

We love the name Sadie but have had comments that it’s a popular dogs name, so I was wondering if you agree?

Aside from that, what do you think of the name? Others we like are

Imogen
Ianthe
Cicely

Thanks!

I went to school with a Sadie and people called her dog face unfortunately

How do you pronounce Ianthe?? 🤷‍♀️

I like Sadie but I love Cicely... which to my mind is an elegant 1940s kind of name ( which is good incidentally). I don’t know anyone of either human or canine descent called Sadie.

I like Sadie. I don’t know any human ones but did know a dog called Sadie. It wouldn’t turn me off though. Many humans have names that can also be used for dogs and dogs are (mostly) lovely!

I love both Sadie and Imogen
Dislike other two options

Never met a dog or a human called Sadie - it's a lovely name. Go for it. Of the others I like Imogen best.

I know a Sadie who is definitely human.

I know 2 Sadies, both human.

It’s a lovely name.
