History & Origin

Sebrena is a variant of Sabrina, the Latin name Sabrina for the river Severn, tied in British legend to a drowned maiden of that name. The story reached wide audiences through Milton and later Hollywood, and American parents produced spellings like Sebrena and Sabreena as the name caught on.

It was always rare against Sabrina, most visible in the nineteen-sixties and seventies and faded since. A Sebrena today is likely a woman of the boomer or Gen-X years; the spelling is a period variant while Sabrina remains familiar.

Did you know? Sabrina spread widely after a 1954 film and a 1960s sitcom, and Sebrena is one of the respellings that trailed it — a sign of a name popular enough to be reshaped many ways.
