What Does the Name Sayde Mean?

Sayde is an English spelling variant of Sadie, a name meaning "princess" that derives from Sarah. Sarah comes from the Hebrew name שָׂרָה (Sarah), whose meaning is usually given as "princess" or "noblewoman." The Hebrew root is related to sar, "prince" or "ruler," with a feminine ending. The literal sense belongs to Sarah; Sadie and Sayde are English forms that inherit it rather than separate Hebrew names.

Sayde Name History & Origins

Sadie developed in English as a pet form of Sarah. Sarah is a biblical matriarch, the wife of Abraham and mother of Isaac, and the name was long used in Jewish, Christian, and Muslim communities.
