Significado
Latinized forma de Habren, the original Galés name of the River Severn. According to Geoffrey of Monmouth, Sabrina was the name of a princess who was drowned in the Severn. Supposedly the river was named for her, but it is more likely that her name was actually derived from that of the river, which is of unknown meaning. She appears as a water nymph in John Miltons masque Comus (1634). It was popularized as a given name by Samuel A. Taylors play Sabrina Fair (1953) and the movie adaptation that followed it the next year.
