Sabina
WDYT of Sabina? It's a name that's growing on me. I pronounce it sah-BEE-nah, but I've also heard it pronounced sah-BYE-nah. How do you pronounce it? Also, any middle name suggestions? -Amy-

I am sure it is pronounced Sah-BEE-nahSince it is not an English name, and this is how the letter I is pronounced in most languages.I love Sabina and find it softer than Sabrina.

I don't care for it. It looks a typo of Sabrina, and I don't find it at all pretty. I pronounce it as Suh-bee-nah.

I pronounce it the same way but I don't like it because it sounds the same as Sabena which is the name of Belgium's former airline (it went bankrupt).

Very good friends of ours have a little girl named Sabina (sa-BEE-nah). It's grown on me - I had never heard it before. I think it's a family name on the Mother's side. I think her middle name is Elise but I'm not sure.
