The only person I've seen it on was a middle-aged German doctor.
There are two 18th-century Sabinas in my family, but I'd be surprised if that got popular - Sabrina is so much more familiar with people nowadays.

I would estimate that it's local to where you live, because Sabine doesn't even chart in the U.S. I will say that Utah is often a very interesting microcosm of American naming practices.

Sabine is very pretty, though, and I'd like to see it more often. It's very similar to my all-time favorite, Sabrina. Maybe less princess-y.

The first association I have with Sabine is a character in the 1993 film adaptation of The Three Musketeers (one of my favorite childhood movies), who's also called Lady de Winter. Now, in Dumas' original novel her name is Anne, but since Queen Anne is also a major character I guess the filmmakers didn't want to confuse audiences with both Annes, so they gave her a unique name. I'm bringing this up because when I hear Sabine, the image in my head is 1990s Rebecca De Mornay:

So... gorgeous, essentially.

I don't know. I've only seen it for characters.

It doesn't appear to chart in the US at all (I'm guessing that's where you are)

I've never met a Sabine in my life. In fact my only dealing with the name is the Sabine women.

I much prefer the upbeat Sabrina.
