According to legend, in the 8th century bc the Romans slaughtered the Sabine menfolk and carried off the women.

The masculine name was borne by at least ten early saints (martyrs and bishops), but as a given name the feminine form was always more popular.Jewish : probably also an Americanized form of some like-sounding Jewish name.
