Sadie: meaning and origin
Sadie began as an English diminutive of Sarah, Behind the Name and Wikipedia agree, and Wikipedia adds that it has long been used as an independent name. It has the friendly, old-fashioned sound of many 19th-century pet names.
Nicknames and variants
Behind the Name lists Sal as the short form and Sally, Sallie and Sarina as variants, so a Sadie can borrow from Sarah’s whole family.
