Sadie?

I posted a couple weeks ago asking for help with old lady names. My little girl made an early appearance and still has no name. I think Sadie is my favourite but still not 100%

What do people think of Sadie? After honest opinions either way. Just want to know what people think of the name.

I can tell my mam doesn’t like it but is being polite and keeping her mouth shut. In laws don’t like it and keep sending different names.
I know it doesn’t matter what other people think I’m just not confident myself

OP posts:

I think it sounds lovely. Congrats

I think it's a really nice name OP. Good choice.

I like it, I think it's a great name!

I wouldn't share any names with family until you've decided, otherwise you'll constantly doubt yourself.

Congratulations Smile

Also congratulations!

I think its lovely but you aren't going to be able to please everybody. If your little one feels like a Sadie to you then stick with it. We planned on calling our daughter a name but when she was born we looked at her and it just didnt feel right.

I like it, I like the sound it makes. I think it was an American shortening of Sarah, but like Sally I see it as a stand-alone name now. I do think of the St. Clares character “Sadie says, Sadie says, what does Sadie say?!” but I can’t imagine that will be a general reaction!
