Out of the three which would be your pick and why?

Nina. Unless there is an Irish connection.

The only Sadies I know are Jewish. It's a beautiful name. I'd go for Nina unless you're Jewish.

I really like all of them but have a slight preference for Nina.

Erin is very pretty. Don’t like Nina or Sadie

I really like all of these!

Sadie feels like a lovely sunshine name to me. 💛

I like it. DH ambivalent and prefers Nina. I just think Sadie is uncommon without being too out there.

Erin

My favourite from your list

Love Nina or Erin. Sadie sounds like a nn to me (not actually sure if it is!).

Sadie is a diminutive (not a nickname) of Sarah.

MaudGonneOutForChips · 10/06/2023 21:36

Nina. Erin is awful and a brand of repulsive packet soup — an honestly, if you wouldn’t call your child Deutschland or Cymru, avoid Erin, and Sadie is a hardbitten sixtysomething chain smoker who’s been known to get into fights in the beer garden.

Erin

I have an Erin! ❤️ We have an irish connection but wanted something that worked for both sides of the family. I love that it doesn't end in "e" or "a" sound, which i worry can be over-frilly sometimes. It's a strong confident name and my DD is a confident, happy 2yr old who is definitely living up to her name.

Nina

Nina

They're all great. My favourite is Sadie, then Nina.

cptartapp · 10/06/2023 19:24

Erin.
Sadie is yet another ie ending name to add to the billions. Nina sounds like an emergency services vehicle.

Nina

HidingInAForest · 10/06/2023 19:22

But I love it ❤️

HidingInAForest · 10/06/2023 19:21

Erin's the only one I like on that list!

Pemba · 10/06/2023 19:20

Nina is lovely. Sadie is nice, cute and quirky.

Not a fan of Erin.

I love the name Erin, it sounds dynamic and clearly a girls name but also slightly androgynous which I would see as a positive.

This is what we like too but by the same token I have niggles about whether it’s girly enough
