    ... the cleaning lady...

    So.. I have a new favourite, Sadie. Does it make you think of the song? I've searched through the forum and not found a single reference to it.

    Here is my current top 5

    Eila / Eily
    Sadie
    Azaria / Azariah
    Zahara / Zahra
    Thalia

    Thay-lee-uh is cool, but according to my name book, it almost rhymes with failure. Am I overthinking it?

    Sadie or Thalia? Both are awesome . No one seems to care about the song.

    I know a couple of Tahlias, not sure about Sadie though - I'd constantly get that song stuck in my head!

    I had a dream I had a baby girl the other night and I called her Tilly. I really like it!

    Yes, it makes me think of the song.

    I actually read Thalia as Tahlia, which I'm not a fan of but really like the pronunciation of Thalia and don't think it rhyming with failure is a problem.

    I've never heard of a song with Sadie in it and I'm not a massive fan of your other names so it's a winner for me

    Sadie, the cleaning lady, with just a scrubbing brush and pail of water, scrubs her fingers to the bone......something, something - it was Johnny Farnhams first hit long time ago.

    I love Sadie. I think as time goes on, less and less people will even know of the connection to the song. Neighbours of ours had boy/girl twins last year and named the little girl Sadie and it's just beautiful. It's a shame it wasn't used more I think.

    I love the name a friends DD is Sadie. When she first told me her name I did think of the song but was just a short term thing in my head! Its a gorgeous name!

    Sorry, I responded way fast because I was too flipped out about you name-stealing!

    Pretty sure we're going with Sadie. Just need to settle on a middle name.

    I actually love Eila. I know a little Eila, I love her name, and I think it sounds awesome with your DD's name.
