What is a nickname for Sarah?

blessedinthewest · February 2009

I really like the name Sarah, but I have never known any Sarah's. Does anyone know what nicknames Sarah's have had?

Everyone that I know named Sarah just goes by Sarah. I've never known a Sarah to go by a nickname. The only thing I've seen is people use the alternate spelling of Sara.

I believe that Sally is a nickname for Sarah, but I've never known anyone named Sarah to go by anything different than the given name.

"Sare-Bear" is the only one I know of, which will work when she's little and perhaps as a pet name from her boyfriend/husband latter on, but her adult friends probably wont use it. Hope it helps.

There really isn't a nn for Sarah. SIL is called "Sara-Dara" once in awhile but it is exclusively a family thing.

I have never heard of anyone named sarah going by a nickname... usualy just Sarah.

Friends and family members call my sister 'Rah.'

Every Sarah I've known has gone by Sarah. I don't think there is a common nickname.

My great aunt was Sarah and went by Sally.

My MIL calls my SIL sar-ee, but i think that is just her

I had a couple of friends named Sarah growing up - we sometimes shortened it to Sar (pronounced Sare like Hare)

In the 18th and 19th century, as well as into the early 20th century, Sally was a popular nn for Sarah (especially since your mom, aunt, grandmother, or someone else was Sarah!). Today, not so much. I personally don't think Sarah needs a nn. It's pretty as is.

One nickname that people gave me was Sarah Belle.

My sister's name is Sarah and people call her Sare-like hare. I call her by her middle name-Jo. Don't know why but I am the only one that does that.

Actually, there are a lot of traditional nicknames for Sarah, but they're rarely used these days.

Sally and Sadie are the only ones I can think of now, but I know there are others. Try googling maybe. I once found a neat website with unusual nicknames, but I just tried to find it and couldn't.

DarcyLongfellow · February 2009

I found the website I was thinking of. It doesn't list any other nicknames besides Sadie and Sally, but I thought I'd give it to you anyway --

My step sister is named Sara and her close friends will call her "Sar" (as in rhymes with fair) in casual conversation, but other than that she goes by Sara.

Melinz · February 2009

Ive always just called my friends that are named Sarah, Sare

JLW10 · February 2009

Sarah doesn't have a nn in my opinion.

Bellisimo · February 2009

Sadie is the nickname for Sarah. I seriously considered naming this baby Sarah so I could call her Sadie. So cute!

tinideni · February 2009

My sister is named Sara....we called her Sari when she was younger.

wheelber · February 2009

My cousin's name is Sarah. Her mom calls her Sadie.

fallbride00 · February 2009

My name is Sara, without the 'h', which is much prettier, btw : ) I've never had a nickname associated with my first name but lots of nicknames from my last name. Most of those I hated so I couldn't wait to change my last name when I got married.
