Sidney "Sid" Chang[n 1] is a minor character in The Loud House and a main deuteragonist in The Loud House spin-off The Casagrandes. She debuted in The Loud House's Season 4 premiere, "Friended! with the Casagrandes", where she appeared as a new girl in the city who became Ronnie Anne's best friend.
Sid is a very bubbly and sweet girl, and a very nice friend to Ronnie Anne. Just like Ronnie Anne, she and her family had just moved to the city as of "Friended! with the Casagrandes". She’s shown to be into trying out everything she sees her peers doing in the city. She enjoys various activities such as eating hotdogs for breakfast and skateboarding after seeing Ronnie Anne doing them.
She’s later shown to have her own interests such as robotics. She constructed Breakfast Bot and reprograms it, when she needs.
She’s shown to have such an interest in K-pop, especially Twelve is Midnight, that she wants to save up for a life-size cutout of Yoon Kwan, and later says she wants to get cutouts for all the members of the band. She and Ronnie Anne also spent fifty dollars at a Twelve is Midnight pop-up store. She used the money on Twelve is Midnight merchandise such as a Yoon Kwan waffle maker, but later reveals she didn't need it because she doesn't even like waffles. She dreams about marrying Yoon Kwan as she put his photo next to a picture of herself in a wedding dress.
She’s also interested in animals, due to her mom having a job at the city zoo. She owns several pet animals that her mom has saved from around the world. Because of her interest in animals, she’s also really good at doing impressions, such as bird calls, which she tends to use for secret missions and communication.

Appearance[]
Sid is a light-skinned, half-Chinese girl, with long brown hair and freckles. She wears a blue long-sleeved shirt revealing her shoulders, black shorts, a pink headband, white studded earrings, white socks with red heels, toes and cuffs[2], and black knee-high tennis boots with white laces and white toe caps.
She also has a birthmark on her right foot in the shape of Abraham Lincoln.[3]
In The Loud House, she was animated without eyelashes; however, official artwork and artwork by crew members depict her as having eyelashes. In The Casagrandes, she was given eyelashes, while her head was redrawn to have bigger temples.
Sid also went through many different phases of prototype designs. In these designs, she was shown to have much lighter hair and braces for the most part but went through phases of having different hair and clothes. She was eventually given darker hair, but in her final design, she had brown hair.
Trivia[]
She is the first non-fictional human character (besides Lincoln) to be depicted on the title card of her debut episode.
This also applies in The Casagrandes, as she is also depicted on the title card of her debut in that series, "Walk Don't Run", making her the first character besides Ronnie Anne to be depicted on the title card of her debut episode.
Replying to @WyomingParmesan Hi Natalie! She’s half Chinese. Although in early development she was originally half Korean and her last name was Kang! It was changed early in the process though Nov 6, 2019[4]
According to former The Loud House writer Sammie Crowley, Sid is half-Chinese. Early in development, she was planned to be half-Korean with the last name Kang.
It’s revealed in "The Two of Clubs" that Sid wears mascara, as Ronnie Anne mistook squid ink running down her face for tears when she looked sad at one point.
Sid can be considered a foil to Lisa. While both are intelligent, brown-haired girls who make robots, Sid is much more likely to show emotion and speaks more loudly.
It sounds like she can whistle super loudly with two, three or four of her fingers.[5]
Sid doesn’t like waffles, but likes pancakes instead.[7]
She can impersonate a chimpanzee, humpback whale and do different accents.[8]
She enjoys watching Lucha Libre, but doesn’t enjoy actually participating in it. She’s also good at engineering and knitting, but bad at pottery and preparing calamari.[9]
She sleepwalks whenever she watches videos before bedtime. During her sleepwalking, she once played with Adelaide's face, ate a carton of milk and did a tango with Cam.[3]
She has always admired the "tenacity" of ants, she has apparently fallen asleep outside by accident before, and she only likes ghost stories if they have happy endings.[11]
If somebody calls her actions crazy, she’ll take it as a compliment.[12]
She once dreamt that she stayed up for three days.[13]
She, Lincoln and Clyde are Ronnie Anne's only friends whose last names have been revealed.
