Is this name bad?

Recently found out a good friend is planning on naming their child:

Sage Ella Smith (surname changed, though I don't know why as it's a ridiculously outing thread anyway!)

I, and some of our other friends think that the two names individually are lovely, even if they aren't to our taste. However Sage Ella together sounds like a disease or such.

Are we wrong? It's a conclusion we've all come to seperately though all agree on.

Do I, or another friend mention it?

Obviously name changed for this!

No you don’t say anything, you stay in your lane. There’s nothing wrong with it and doesn’t sound like anything bad at all. I feel incredibly sorry for her, she has no idea what a nasty group of so called friends she has.

Nah you're just being nasty. It sounds fine.

I think it sounds fine. And how often are people called by first name middle name anyway. It’s not nice to be bitching about friends name choices.

You are a really nasty group of friends to be bitching like this.
