Some scholars have suggested that Hirosada and his contemporary Osaka artist Utagawa Sadahiro (歌川貞廣?) (fl. 1830-1847) were one and the same. According to Keyes, "there is a strong, though unproven case for believing that Gosōtei Hirosada... was the well-known artist Sadahiro I." Evidence for this, Keyes argues, can be found in stylistic similarities between the two artists' work, the similarity of the artists' names (the same two characters reversed—廣 [hiro] + 貞 [sada] vs 貞 [sada] + 廣 [hiro]) and signatures, the two artists' use of the same 'Gosōtei' gō, and the appearance of the 'Sadahiro' seal on some prints signed by Hirosada.
