Sadie is fun

To me Sadie is the opposite/ sad. Sad-ie 😕

Totally agree with this.

Sad, sadistic, sadist, sadly... it’s just such a horrible name.

Katie and Amy aren’t great names but at least they aren’t depressing.

Katie and Amy are sweet. Sadie is the name of a Victorian prostitute.

May2021Mummy · 11/03/2021 16:29

Katie is my favourite I much prefer it to Katherine

I don't understand why people put long names on birth certificates and then never use them

Katie, although I prefer Kate.

Loathe Sadie.

Sadie. Was top of my list but I had a boy. Also love Shona.

Smallonesaremorejuicy · 11/03/2021 07:54

Sadie is very nice , Amy is boring , Katie is far too twee although Katherine is lovely.

MercyBodle · 11/03/2021 07:40

I like Katie and Amy:

  1. Katie
  2. Amy
  3. Sadie

I like Sadie and Amy a lot. I think I'd go for Katherine rather than Katie.

Chilldonaldchill · 10/03/2021 21:14

Sadie by far.
I like Kate but Katie is boring
Amy is dull too.

Sadie by far

TenThousandSpoons · 10/03/2021 20:11

Love Sadie!
I do like the other two a lot as well but Sadie I like best.

Sadie

DramaAlpaca · 10/03/2021 19:59

Amy, Katie and Sadie, in that order.

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 10/03/2021 19:36

Katie makes me think of Katie Hopkins, sorry.

NameChangedForThisFeb21 · 10/03/2021 19:34

Not keen on any of them, sorry. Sadie reminds me of Sadist. Katherine is nicer than Katie. So is Kate. Amy was so common when I was at school. I know a little Cadie
which is less common and sort of a combination of all three...

ILoveShula · 10/03/2021 19:30

Katie

SmeleanorSmellstrop · 10/03/2021 11:41

Sadie is cool! Amy and Katie dull

hullabaloo19 · 09/03/2021 18:19

I tend not to like 'common names' so I usually wouldn't choose Katie or amy but I don't like the name Sadie (grandparents had a dog named Sadie and I didn't meet a person called Sadie til I was an adult so I always think of it as a dogs name). Katie is a lovely sounding name IMO, even though it's quite well used and I wouldn't choose it myself.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 09/03/2021 18:09

If Katherine or Sarah (nn Katie and Sadie) is not an option, then I'd stick with Amy - it's not my taste personally but it's a classic name. Katie is quite 80's/90's (I knew lots!) and Sadie is trendy sounding to me.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 09/03/2021 18:08

Katie is my favourite from those three. Amy is a bit boring and I’m not keen on Sadie.
