Charlie’s Angel. Or a witch.

NoraLuka · 27/06/2021 20:22

Love it ! DD2 is Sabrina 😊

Aiminami28 · 27/06/2021 20:26

I really like Sabrina. My name is Sabina, I adore it.

TatianaBis · 27/06/2021 20:36

Pretty.

Rizzoli123 · 27/06/2021 20:48

I love sabrina. I love charlies angels and she is my favourite. Plus I think it's fell out of favour so its a unpopular name

TheYearOfSmallThings · 27/06/2021 20:51

I like it. It does make me picture Melissa Joan Hart and Salem, but that is because I'm old.

Lalliella · 27/06/2021 21:27

Lovely. I wanted to be Sabrina in Charlie’s Angels!

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 27/06/2021 21:30

the teenage witch

Zeev · 27/06/2021 21:37

I'm old and it reminds me of the Italian 80's popstar with serious boobage.

yup Boys boys boys...

I like it. It makes me think of the Audrey Hepburn film and the very beautiful Mrs Idras Elba.

Me too.
Juancornetto · 27/06/2021 21:48

It's a lovely name Smile

Lavender21 · 27/06/2021 21:49

It's really pretty and makes a change from the more usual names.

Zarene · 27/06/2021 21:52

I like it.

But (on a similar note) I do know a Clarissa who gets 'explains it all' jokes far too often.

But your DD's peers won't have watched 90s kids TV so that shouldn't be a problem!

sunshineandshowers40 · 27/06/2021 21:53

I really like it and have never met a Sabrina. Such a pretty name.

Jessesgirl13 · 27/06/2021 21:56

I really like it. Was on our list for DD! Only reason i didn't commit to it was because I couldn't think of a nice way to shorten it.

riotlady · 27/06/2021 22:34

I really like it!

Just10moreminutesplease · 27/06/2021 22:38

I love it!

Palmatree · 27/06/2021 22:59

I really like it. Love the celtic origins and link to River Severn. It's on our list. Don't think we'll use it though - quite similar to DD1's name, don't like any of the nicknames and do worry a bit about its links to the teenage witch, 80s pop star, Charlie's Angel's etc. But we'll see. It's a beautiful name - very happy sounding and a bit different.

EishetChayil · 27/06/2021 23:06

It's one of those names that just doesn't seem "real" to me. Same as Jasmine, for some reason.

Plus it has blowsy undertones. A stripper or a cabaret singer.

WhenZoomWasJustAnIceLolly · 27/06/2021 23:08

The teenage witch

felineflutter · 27/06/2021 23:13

Not keen.

SirSamuelVimes · 28/06/2021 15:52

How about Sabine? And then when she's old enough you can tell her about the awesome racing driver she's named after.

CaffiSaliMali · 28/06/2021 16:42

I love Sabrina and it's on my list, a great name.

I went to Uni with a Clarissa who rarely got 'explains it all' jokes and this was in an age group who watched the show as a child. So I'd be hopeful that a child Sabrina now wouldn't get too many 'the teenage witch's references when her peers probably won't see the show.
