What a fascinating female name. I was under the impression it was male (I believe the novel Good Omens has a male character named Sable), but I just encountered a girl with this name today.

One of the female but not conventionally effeminate names out there. I might not use it as a first name, but as a middle name it'd be good.

"Sable" means "sand" in French.

And in French it's pronounced SAW-bluh, as opposed to SAY-b'l in English.

I think this name wouldn't really be a good first name for a human but it would be an alright nickname or even a middle name.

It's a name that rhymes with 'table' and 'able', and also 'cable', now that I think about it. And 'fable'. Could lead to bad jokes and poems and songs to make fun of a girl named this. But it's not like anyone would use this old-fashioned name anymore.

Sable Colby was a character in the 80s soap 'Dynasty'. Her name was short for Sabella.
