What do you think of Sabina? It's a new love of mine. Please don't suggest Sabrina. I like Sabine too, but not as much and the rape of the Sabine woman puts me off it. It probably would get misheard and misspelled as Sabrina, but I'm not having kids anytime soon so this is a purely theoretical discussion.

Also, which is your favorite of these combos?
Sabina Charlotte
Sabina Lily
Sabina Pearl
Sabina Caroline
Sabina Rose
Sabina Lillian
Sabina Mary

Thank you!

I really like the name Sabina. The only thing that puts me off it is it might get confused with Sabrina.

Out of your list I like Sabina Rose and Sabina Charlotte.

I like Sabina. I'm not fond of Rose, but I like the other combos quite well.

I prefer Sabine pronounced like Sabina, mostly because I had a friend by the name (her father was German). But since Sabina is essentially the same thing, sure, why not. ;)

Sabina Mary appeals to me most tonight of those, and after it, Sabina Charlotte--but it's a far second.

Sabine pronounced like Sabina is nice...but would cause complete and utter confusion outside of Germany.

I love the name Sabina! I also love Sabine pronounced za-BEE-nuh.

My favorite combo is Sabina Charlotte. I also like Sabina Mary.

Thanks!

That pronunciation of Sabine is pretty but would definitely not fly here.

I always really loved Sabine, but then I saw the Mr. Bean movie and there was that lady called Sabine and some lame joke where he was like "ahh sa-Bean" so yea...it got taken off my PNL.

But otherwise Sabina a nice name!

Sabina Charlotte is my favourite. Mainly because I dislike Lily, Pearl, Caroline and Lillian (although as a combo Sabina Pearl was up there) And Rose and Mary are a little fillerish. (I cringe whenever I see someone else with Rose as a middle name because its my own, and I love everything about the name except that its my mn!)

I've never seen the Mr. Bean movie, but the bean thing does sort of put me off it.

My middle name is Rose too, and I love it except for the fact that it's so fillery. I'd never use it on a child but I figured Sabina's unusual enough for Rose not to be hideous paired with it.

I know a Sabina. I wish I knew her middle name, but her sibs are Jeanette Violet, Eugene, and Elizabeth Eugenie (the parents are Jean-Marie and Eugene "Gene", which explains all the Jean/Gene's in the sibset), if you're interested. :)

Anywayyy, I really like Sabina Pearl. The rest are nice too, but that stood out to me.

Interesting sibset!

I neither like nor dislike the name. It's just so-so for me.

My favorite of your combos is Sabina Pearl. Sabina Lillian is pretty too.
