Thoughts on the name Sadie

How do you feel about the name Sadie, I met a six year old Sadie once & she’s was so cute! Do you guys think it’ll age well? Or is it too juvenile sounding

I have an older teen named Sadie - it suits her. Can't see it failing the perennial "can you imagine a senior exec being called Sadie" - there are lots.

Also, because this will undoubtedly come up on the thread - no one has referenced any Sadie songs to her, nor has anyone mocked her by pointing out her name includes "sad" and "die" nor does she ever get called a sadist Wink

It's a bit too much like Sally for me, which I've never liked. They're both nn for Sarah.

I love it it’s a name full of sass and vivacity but also not overly childish

I like it. It's been around for quite a while and has a cool vibe.

I know a very cool Sadie in her 50s. It’s a great name, sweet on a little girl and works for all ages.

Love it, a fantastic name.

staffieslobber · 14/09/2021 15:14

I'm not keen personally - seems a bit saccharine maybe? I think it's becoming more popular though - there's a 6 month old Sadie down my road. I suspect that once I've heard it used for a few more real life babies/children I'll come around to it.

becarefuloutthere · 14/09/2021 16:09

This is on my name list too! I think it's having a revival.

xprincessxjanetx · 14/09/2021 19:17

I just hear sadism.

CarryOnNurse20 · 14/09/2021 20:27

Gorgeous. Love it. I know two Sadies and they’re both fab.

Dancingonmoonlight · 15/09/2021 08:53

I know three Sadies - from 50+ to 6. I prefer Sarah nn Sadie.
