....the teenage witch

Nimbostratus100 · 24/12/2022 22:23

nice

PrincessesRUs · 24/12/2022 22:23

The teenage witch!

PrincessesRUs · 24/12/2022 22:23

It's nice enough though!

@Geminimama88
Sabrina is a beautiful name, i know someone with the same name

Geminimama88 · 24/12/2022 22:27

Would you say it’s a negative association today?

I like it with the nickname Bree, but not 100%

i think a lot of people 30 years old and above will associate with teenage witch. But younger this than less likely to know the reference. It’s a nice name!

AnotherRoadsideAttraction · 24/12/2022 22:30

Fab name - no negative connotations and not overused. Not as keen on Bree, but she may end up being a Seb, a Rinnie or a Rin (which are all cool).

Full name: Sabrina Louise!

ShakeYourFeathers · 24/12/2022 22:31

Not keen
Teenage witch and a utter nightmare I knew at school.

Although I did like the former so go for it.

Not necessarily. Netflix did a reboot.

Nice name though.

I love it. Makes me think of the John Milton lines -
Sabrina fair
Listen where thou art sitting
Under the glassie, cool, translucent wave,
In twisted braids of Lillies knitting
The loose train of thy amber-dropping hair,
Listen for dear honour's sake,
Goddess of the silver lake,
Listen and save.

WordtoYoMumma · 24/12/2022 22:41

Love it!! Great name

UsingChangeofName · 24/12/2022 22:46

.....the Teenage Witch is my immediate reaction to the name, but I don't think it is a a negative thing really.

Jellyjam36 · 24/12/2022 22:59

The teenage witch is also what follows Sabrina for me. It must be an over 30s thing.
It is a lovely name, but teenage witch is what I think

Enko · 24/12/2022 23:02

I like it.

fabricstash · 24/12/2022 23:03

I think if the film/films Sabrina - all positive

HappyHogan · 24/12/2022 23:18

My best friends name. She goes by Beanie

Luredbyapomegranate · 25/12/2022 00:57

Love it

CaptainCastillo · 25/12/2022 08:55

My DD Is Sabrina, I love It!

RambamThankyouMam · 25/12/2022 08:55

Stripper name. Or a leathery-tanned middle-aged Italian prostitute.

How is it a stripper name-

CaptainCastillo · 25/12/2022 08:58

Also love the meaning: Legendary queen

JoyfulGirl · 25/12/2022 10:41

Love it! Teenage Witch/Chilling Adventures association is inescapable but that wouldn’t bother me.

ofwarren · 25/12/2022 10:45

I do think the teenage witch, but it's not a negative association.
Nice name!

scottishnames · 25/12/2022 11:58

As the lovely poem quoted above says, Sabrina was a river-goddess - the goddess of the river Severn. It's a pretty name.
