WDYT of Sabrina? Does it just make you think of the teenage witch?

I love it. I think the classic movie. Audrey. ;)

The witch or the movie...
It's an alright name. :)

I love it. And I don't think of anything. I just think of how nice a name it is.

Yep. I don't like it either.

No, actually it makes me think of my aunt's life partner. It's alright as a name, though, barring that association.

I associate it with a girl I grew up with. She taught me how to melt crayons in a coke bottle full of water like a homemade lava lamp.

Yes, actually. But besides that, it's not really my style either.

Yes, it does. I don't like it.

My name's Sabrina, but I was born before all the teenage witch crap.
I hated that show because that's ALL people relate my name with.

no, actually. I think of my friend Sabrina, who's quite literally the smartest person I've ever met :)
I like it.

I do think of it but I don't think that should stop you. It also makes me think of the wonderful movies =)

Kind of, but to me that's not a bad thing. I LOVED that show.
I actually think of the Audrey Hepburn movie first though.

Either way, I think it's a pretty name.

I prefer Selina, but I don't mind it.

It reminds me of Charlie's Angels, and I loved that show. Anyway, it's a pretty nice name, which might make my final list because none of my cousins stole it yet !!!

Technically, the teenage witch was Sebrina, wasn't she?

And no, my first thought was of someone I used to be friends with (we fell out of touch) called Sabrina. If you'd put Sebrina, that might have made me think of the teenage witch first.

Plus, Sebrina The Teenage Witch was YEARS ago. The peers of a baby born now wouldn't know anything about it. (Parents may be a different story.)

Another think to bear in mind is, if the child has long straight blonde hair then people are bound to make the associations more. In the case of my friend, she's black, so that was hardly an issue.

PLUS, even if they do, if there is an actual baby/child/person around with that name, the first couple of times they may have to remind themselves that it's a different Sabrina to that, but after a few meetings the association will be gone anyway, and then they'll just think of the other person the whole time that they know them :-)

I don't like the name, and it makes me think of the show.

It makes me think of the annoying girl who kept kicking my chair at a piano recital when I was little.

I like it and yes, but I still like it. Wouldn't use it though. Mostly because my son's name is Harvey and Harvey + Sabrina wouldn't be very funny.

no, it was Sabrina the Teenage Witch. I've never even heard Sebrina be used...

I did immediately think of the teenage witch, but I think it's a really beautiful and classy name.

It's nice. I like Sabina better.

I don't think of that. I just like the name.
