What's in a name

My name has little meaning to me.  I was named Sadie because of one reason; my mother made the name up.  Otherwise, the name has no significance.

Before my mother thought of 'Sadie', she was considering naming me 'Sudie',  an awful name that makes me grateful to be called 'Sadie'.  I can't imagine being called 'Sudie', even if the name is only a letter away from mine.  

Although my name has no meaning to me, according to the internet, 'Sadie' means 'princess' in Greek.  I think that if my parents had known this, they might have changed their minds about my name.  However, the definition doesn't matter to me.  I don't think many people would know that.  Overall, I am quite happy with my name.
