I like the name a lot, always have. I, obviously, think of the Teenage Witch. That show was popular when I was a kid and I loved the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina on Netflix a couple years ago. I could never use it though, because my name is Tabitha. Both names have witchy connotations, which I don't hate at all, but Bewitched is passing from the public consciousness and I haven't gotten "twitch you nose!" requests in years. If I had a daughter named Sabrina though, it would be constant because that character is very much still in public consciousness. I just think it'd be really annoying. I imagine a Sabrina being kind and bubbly, maybe a little silly.

It’s ok but feels dated, it has a very generation X vibe to me, it’s also very pop-cultural, whether it’s the Audrey Hepburn movie or Charlie’s Angels or the teenage witch.

It's pleasant.
It's like the April or Monica of the 1990s. Kinda yuppie, distinctive but not weird, ages well.

I've always liked Sabrina casually. I've never loved it but I've always liked it. To me it always feels like the epitome of the nice popular girl who is really pretty and has all the friends in school but is incredibly generous and sweet. Blonde of course as well like the teenage witch. I think it is very slightly dated but not in the way some other names are. I could still imagine a baby Sabrina a lot more easily than a baby Deborah or a baby Susan. I probably wouldn't even bat an eye if I met a baby Sabrina. I do not consider it tied to a particular era at this time.

It reminds me of toothpaste for some reason.

I really like Sabrina! I first encountered Sabrina as the name of the singer of the Alan Walker's song "On My Way", which is Sabrina Carpenter. It's also a name of my acquaintance's sister.The impression I got from her is a strong aura, I imagine her as an independent and knowledgeable woman. I don't think it's a dated to a particular time, as I knew several Sabrinas from a different range of ages.

I dislike it, the “sab” and “breen” sounds together are unappealing imo. It reminds me of the similar Sabina which reminds me of beans. It feels a bit dated to the 90s but is still usable since it wasn’t extremely popular. I knew a Sabrina who was a bit quiet and very nice, brown hair and eyes.
