Sable is the name of the lady's maid (or 9th Century equivalent) to Aethelflaed (Æthelflæd), Lady of Mercia, on the TV show "The Last Kingdom."
Her name in the show, however, is pronounced "SAH-buhl." In this context it is most likely an Old English variant of Isabel (ultimately derived from biblical Elizabeth) rather than a reference to the animal.

The appearance of Sable on the US name popularity statistics for 1986 is most likely due to Sabella "Sable" Colby, a character from the popular American television series "Dynasty" (1981-1989) and its spin-off "The Colbys" (1985-1987).
Sable Colby first appeared on "Dynasty" in November 1985. Later that same month, the character became a regular on "The Colbys", which she continued to be until the end of the series in 1987. After that, she reappeared in the final season of "Dynasty" from 1988 to 1989.

Sable is also commonly used as a masculine given name in English. A known fictional male bearer of this name is Famine, a.k.a. Dr. Raven Sable from the novel and TV series Good Omens (novel by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, TV series by Neil Gaiman). However, Sable is more common for females. So, I think that the "Gender" of this name should be changed from "Feminine" to "Feminine & Masculine".

My sister's name is Sable. It's pronounced SAY-bl. And we do joke about her name, but I think it's beautiful. When she was younger we used to say 'Sable, are you able to watch cable while you're sitting at the table?' We still joke about it from time to time.

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.

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.
