Sabino is a masculine given name of Latin origin, from Sabinus, meaning “a Sabine; belonging to the Sabine people,” an ancient Italic tribe of central Italy. It began as a Roman cognomen identifying ethnic origin and entered the Christian name stock through early martyrs and bishops named Sabinus/Sabino, which anchored its use in late antiquity and the Middle Ages.

The name is established in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese (including Latin America), with particular prominence in parts of southern and central Italy. Notable cults of San Sabino - such as the bishops of Spoleto and Canosa - helped sustain its popularity and name-day traditions. Variants and related forms include Italian Savino, Latin Sabinus, Sabin (English, French, Romanian), and the feminine Sabina, Savina, and Sabine; affectionate short forms like Sabi occur. Sabino is also encountered as a surname in Iberian and Lusophone contexts, while its core meaning remains “of the Sabines.”
