That's it really. The name is Sadie. I think it's gorgeous, he thinks it's truly awful. We clearly won't be using it now but would love to hear your thoughts, surely I can't be the only one who loves it!

Brian O'Driscoll (of Irish rugby fame) and his wife Amy Huberman (actress) have a dd called Sadie.

Sadie was the name of a cow we had. Nice name but wouldn't use it due to the association.

I love it too but I think it is a marmite name.

Use it as a middle name

How about
Esme
Judy
Alanah
Nia
Jenna

All kind of nice but slightly different like Sadie?

Across the Barricades. A book that I loved as a kid about two teenagers called Kevin and Sadie in Northern Ireland. As a result, I LOVE that name. Oddly not Kevin...

Zadie Smith (awful woman) used to be called Sadie, but changed it presumably because Sadie was so dull.

Both Zadie and Sadie are awful IMO.

It's a lovely name it if your DH doesn't like it then I guess you will have to find another name.

No advice on names I'm afraid as we've 12 weeks to go and in the same position. Can't agree Angry

Hold on to the hope he might change his mind when she's here?? Flowers

i love Sadie, i only know nice ones.

Oh mouse that sucks! I've let go of hope - he really hates it and I would never try and force him! We have a couple of others too luckily. Do you have any that you agree on?
