Zabrina is a feminine name and form of Sabrina, rich in Welsh and Latin roots. This magical appellation comes from blending Latin Severn and Welsh Habren—names of a river in Wales that flows into England. Meaning “nymph of the river Severn,” “river goddess,” or “plowed land,” Zabrina ultimately stems from the legend of a Celtic princess drowning in the Severn River by the hand of her stepmother. It’s believed that Habren lives in the river, riding her chariot alongside dolphins and salmon. Fans of mythology and the macabre may find Zabrina an ideal choice.
