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

LOVE it

Although it does remind me of Sadie Mae Glutz, the Manson girl who was there the night of the Sharon Tate murder. Which is the only reason I didn’t consider it for my DD (had just finished reading the book about it when I found out I was pregnant!)

I just see Sad and Sadist when I see the name Sadie.

I like it but that doesn't really matter. If OH hates it, probably best avoided.

I love it

I know a couple of teens called Sadie and a woman in her 30s. I don't think of it as a pet name at all.

I think of marquid de Sade and Sadism... maybe not everyone does!

I met one recently and thought it was an awful name (just because I would think Sade and Sad.)

Nope, just listen to the song ‘Sadie the cleaning lady’ by John Farnham. That’s the only Sadie I have heard of!

There’s a gorgeous little Sadie at our local school
