Torn on boys name & 2 girls names

We currently have 2 little boys, both with one syllable names (Trent & Bryce.) It's been hard enough to think of another boys name that we like, but we tend to graviate toward one syllable boys names. I am leaning toward Tate, but recently learned that my brother's girlfriend (possibly future wife) just got a dog by that same name. Is this a big deal, because now that the laughter & initial shock has worn off, I think I'm okay with it. Also, does Tate sound too much like Trent? What do you think? Also, if you have any other suggestions for one syllable boys names, I would REALLY appreciate it.
As far as girls names go, I think we've narrowed it down to Kennedy Nicole & Sadie Nicole. I would also like your opinion on which you like better.
Thanks so much!!!!

Hi there. Congrats on #3!
I really like Trent & Bryce. Those are both rather handsome. Tate is nice too. It's really a matter of your comfort level wheather or not Tate is too close to Trent. Personally, I wouldn't do it. But if that's the only name that both you & your dh really love, then go for it. Here are a few one syllable boy suggestions:
Cole
Colm
Cash
Clark
Drake
Flynn
Finn
Graham
Grant
Gray
Hugh
Kurt
Kent
Luke
Max
Mac
Marc
Noel
Pierce
Quinn
Rafe
Roy
Rhys
Ross
Stewart
Saul
West
Zane
Zeke

As far as Sadie vs. Kennedy goes, definitly Sadie! Kennedy is masculine, trendy, & just not good. Sadie is sweet, girly, & classic. I'm sorry to be so negative. Hope this helps. :)
If you don't mind your Ds having the same name as the dog then I think it's fine. I don't think it would both me. Trent & Tate aren't too similiar, I'd go for it.
As for the girl names, I think I like Sadie Nicole a little better than Kennedy, although I like that name as well. It was close.
I love the name Kennedy for a girl. I like Sadie, too, but I prefer Kennedy.

Kennedy is a really cute name, but IMO Sadie is a nn and doesn't sound good for a full names.

Boys name: I think Tate is way too close to Trent (the dog issue doesn't bother me). How about Nate instead?
Girls name: To me, Sadie is a nickname and I wouldn't choose it for a given name, so I guess I choose Kennedy although it is not a favorite of mine.
1st of all, I like Sadie better than Kennedy.
As for a boy name, I think Trent & Tate is way too much in the T department! It's not that they're too similar, just too many Ts.
Here are some one-syllable names to consider...
-Lee
-Max
-Jay
-Cole* (my fav)
-Sam
-Luke
-Gregg
-Craig
-Mark
I personally like Sadie Nicole over Kennedy. Very feminine and not heard very often! And I love the name Tate! I don't think it's too close to Trent at all. Do you have a middle name for Tate?
Good Luck!
