Sadie

[VerityH]

I really like the name Sadie but my husband says it's a pets name (dog/horse). Do you agree with him?

@BabloHoney My nana was known as Sadie but her real name was Sarah. She was born in early 1900's.

I have only ever come across one other Sadie and she's about 12 now.

I think it's nice enough but I like Zadie better.

To digress the thread in the nicest way has the poster with prem baby Saydee been back recently?
Just reminded me!!

Just searched and saw she was home for Xmas!
Lovely start to the year!!

Don’t like it.

Don’t like it, used to know a very badly behaved girl called Sadie and I don’t like the sound of it too

I think it's a lovely name and if it didn't clash with my surname I would have it at the top of my list

I'd never have thought of it but I actually love it. It's definitely not a pets name. I have a Lola and have met loads of dog Lola's since I named her. I've never heard of a pet called Sadie

I don't like it, sounds like sadist

It's just so twee

Love but we already have one in the family so couldn’t use myself!

I don’t love it but I don’t think it’s a pet’s name.

I don’t see sad I see (hear) Sadism.

I love the name Sadie but I do also know a dog with the name!

I think it's a bad name but I don't think of a pet

I don’t see it as a pets name

I adore the name Sadie- it’s on my list

Nice. Makes me think of the Beatles track.

I have a Sadhbh and tried to introduce Sadie as a nickname when she was tiny.

DH was having NONE of it.

So similarly to others, I love it, DH has no taste and vetoed.

I wanted this 18 yrs ago when I was pregnant with DS. I'm pretty sure my MIL who was from Northern Ireland told me it meant slag or whore of something similar there 😕

I love Sadie - used to work with someone called this who has been registered as Mercedes.
As to it being a pet’s name, that wouldn’t bother me at all. Lots of people give their pets what I would call a human name nowadays.

Bigus, your MIL was talking shite.

(I’m from NI with multiple great-aunties called Sadie)

I love it, also love other “old lady” names such as Connie, Nancy etc

I had great nana Sadie and Connie 😂

My nana Sadie, was actually a Sarah but everyone used her nickname and called her Sadie.

Sorry but as a child our dog was called Sadie so not my first choice

It's cute

I adore Sadie. I think it’s so lovely and is a name that works well across ages.

terriblecustomercervix Haha doesn't surprise me at all that my MIL was talking shite. She always did! I'm glad it doesn't mean that, I've always loved the name- she obviously didn't and tried to make something up about it. Kind of typical of her tbh.

DS would have been Sadie.

Love it.
