Okay, thank you all for your help in my polls. I think we've pretty much decided on Spencer nn Spence. We've liked it all along.
Im completely torn between Sadie and Sabrina. I love them both! and DH likes them both. Im pushing more for Sabrina and hes pushing a little more towards Sadie. My question is to those of you who chose Sabrina, why did you? and for those of you who chose Sadie, why did you? and for those of you who didnt pick either of those 2 names, which one would you pick now and why?
Thanks sooo much ladies.
I will be posting the final boy name and the final girl name with middle name options soon enough. But if you have any suggestions now, they are welcome!!

I voted for Sabrina because it sounds very bell-like and delicate but really is a strong woman's name. Somehow a Sabrina can't be wishy-washy in my head.
I toyed with the idea of voting for Sadie, but I didn't in the end because to me, Sadie's just a nickname for Sara(h) or Mercedes and I dislike nicknames as full names, they sound great when the person in question is a child but looks silly on an adult and makes them forever explain themselves as "no, it's just (Sadie, ex: Mike, Jack, Jimmy, Lily) not (Sara(h),ex: Michael, John, James, Lillian). I like nicknames, just not full time. Sabrina seems complete in itself.. very feminine without being fluffy, strong yet sweet. Can't go wrong with Sabrina!
I chose Sabrina. Not because I like it that much better than than Sadie (I like them both a lot!) I liked Sabrina better with Samantha. Those 2 are more equal and Sadie to me didn't fit as well.
Good luck!
"My question is to those of you who chose Sabrina, why did you?"
I actually posted my response to that in your poll thread. I love the name Sabrina, and while I
These were my two favorites of the names that you had, so I'm fine with either one. Of the two, however, I prefer Sadie. I posted under your poll about the sounds that they end with (Sabrina like Samanatha) where Sadie is a different sound. Also I think of Sadie as an adorable older name that is so cute for a little girl, but grows well with her. Sabrina seems slightly more formal, and does have the whole "teen witch" connotation as well.
Honestly, I love both of them, but Sadie just a bit more.
I picked Sabrina cause while I love Sadie to me it is a nn and isn't a name that would be good for a professional woman as an adult..
why not use Sabrina Diane and use Sadie as her nn? Best of both words..that way she can go by Sadie..but for resumes, applications, business cards etc she can sign Sabrina D. Whatever...
the way you get Sadie from Sabrina Diane SA(brina) DI(an)E...
