I like Sadie the best. I like it better when siblings end in a different sound, especially since they all begin with the same letter. That rules out Summer (too close to Skyler) and Sabrina (Samantha). That way when you are yelling at them to get downstairs for dinner Sadie will know that you are talking to her and not one of the other kids, LOL.

I picked Sabrina, b/c I think it has the same feminine feel that Samantha does.


For me, Sadie...well, the name has definitely been growing on me, but it still seems more like a nn to me. Also, I keep seeing "Sadie the bag lady" in my mind. I also think it's an "older" name, but that's precisely why it's growing on me; I kind of like names that have the feel to them. I just think that Sadie pales next to Samantha...I think that throughout life, Samantha will be the "pretty" name and Sadie is the "spunky" name...and the girls might not like those generalizations.


I feel the same way about Stacy/Stacey--it's cute, but to me, it's not one of those beautiful names...


Summer isn't necessarily a cutesy name, but I still don't think it really goes with Samantha. Though Summer would be my 2nd choice after Sabrina.


I am also wondering--what do you think about using Sadie as a nn for Sabrina? I know the "a" sound for Sadie and Sabrina is different, but it might work anyway....


Best of luck to you!

Sadie is my niece's name and she is the only person I have ever met with that name. She is "spunky." Her nick name was "Sadie-Sadie."

I chose Sadie b/c I thought Sabrina is close to Samantha and Summer is close to Skyler. I just don't care too much for Stacy but I think it has a neg. image for me b/c of former classmates. Good luck!
