Has Sadie gone to the dogs?

wwuangel · April 2013

I love Sadie but I hear so many "that's a dogs name" comments when I tell people it's on our list. I've never met a dog named Sadie so I have to ask do you think it's gone to the dogs? I also find it ironic that people don't associate Bella and Max with dog names but those are the most common ones I hear at the dog park!

I don't think so. I like names that end in -ie. However, I don't think they age well. They are nice as NN's though.

Nope. My oldest is Sadie. Her given name :

I think it is a perfectly fine human name. I will say though that our dog is named Sadie and I know at least 4 other dogs named Sadie. It is just getting trendy to give dogs human names so any name could be a dog name. Sadie is a fantastic name and you sh

I wouldn't worry about it as long as you don't have a dog close to named Sadie. Its a nice name for a girl.

I am a dog walker and know 3 Sadie's with four legs.
Other names that would be out for me personally for this reason are
Bella
Stella
Sophie
All are beautiful people names but have become really popular in the dog world to

IMO, yes. Same with Bailey.

People like to give dogs human names. That's ok. But it doesn't make them dog names. If you wanted to name a child fido I'd roll me eyes. But Sadie and Molly and max are for people.

I really wouldn't pay any mind to the dog comments. They are so unfounded to me. I worked as a receptionist in a veterinarian clinic during college and checked in so many more Molly's, Maggie's, Chloe's, and Abby's than Sadie's.

I think it's fine. Most of my dogs have had people names and I never strictly associate them as such.

I had a dog named Sadie when I was a kid, but also went to school with a girl named Sadie. I hate the "that's a dog's name" statement because they were people names first. I've had dogs named Timmy and Delilah, as well as my current three, Casie, Penny, a

I went to summer camp with a girl named Sadie she's in her early 30's now. I also have an 8th grade student named Sadie. Never met a dog named Sadie.

I agree with PP, don't worry about it.

My name is quite common for dogs, ducks, cows etc... and that's kinda lame but it's still a perfectly legit human name. In fact, I get a lot of compliments on it. I don't know any dogs named Sadie and we pla

I don't know any Sadie dogs. I do know a human Sadie, though. I like it.

Erinm278 · April 2013

What an interesting question considering DH's aunt stole BOTH my girl names for her dogs! Sadie and Lucy were front runners for us until she gave the names to her dogs. I think it's a human name!

gutsymama · April 2013

Sadie is a people name. I've never known any dogs named Sadie, and even if I did, it would still be a great name for a human.

Besides, dogs are cool. I'm pretty sure when I was a kid I would've loved to have had the same name as someone's p

apc1929 · April 2013

I love Sadie and don't get the dog reference either.. I know or have known plenty of dogs named Max, Jack, Tucker, Emma, Bella etc. and don't think of them as dog names. I think its a great name that is both adorable on

My dog's name is Sadie but I think it's so cute for a little girl.

tealowl · April 2013

My aunt had a dog named Sadie. I also know a girl with a daughter named Sadie.

When someone says, "That's a dogs name.", I think to myself, well it was a human name first!

I think Sadie is adorable. FWIW, I had a dog named Angus growin

KellBelle1230 · April 2013

I had a student named Sadie and I thought it was cute. My aunts dog is Sadie but she also doesn't have children. My opinion is that it is a girls name and people need to get more create with their pet names. My dog is Zeppelin.
