What is the meaning of the name Sabina ?

The baby name Sabina is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /səˈbiːnə/ (suh-BEE-nuh).

Sabina is Latin in Origin.

Sabina is the Latin feminine form of Sabinus, meaning “a Sabine woman” or “from the Sabine tribe,” referencing the ancient Italic people northeast of Rome. The name was borne by notable Romans, including Vibia Sabina, empress and wife of Hadrian. An early Christian martyr, Saint Sabina of Rome (feast 29 August), further anchored the name; the 5th-century basilica of Santa Sabina on the Aventine commemorates her. Through the Roman and Christian spheres it remained in use across medieval Europe and later enjoyed periodic revivals.

Modern forms and cognates include Italian/Spanish/Portuguese/Romanian Sabina; French and German Sabine; Slovak Sabína; Hungarian Szabina; Russian/Polish/Czech Sabina. Diminutives and nicknames: Sabi, Bina, Sabinka. Related masculine forms are Sabino, Sabin, and the Latin Sabinus. While often linked to Sabrina, that name has a different origin (the River Severn). Sabina conveys calm classical strength with a pan-European, timeless profile.
