Origin and meaning of Savina
Savina is the Italian form of Sabina, from Latin Sabina, 'woman of the Sabines,' the ancient Italic people bound up with Rome's origins; the name is also associated with the savin shrub. It thus has classical roots and a delicate, old-world tone. It is supported by devotion to a few saints named Savina, such as Saint Savina of Milan. In Italy it is rare and refined, chosen for its quiet elegance. Beyond the borders the forms Sabina and Sabine, common in German- and French-speaking lands, prevail.
