Meaning & origin
Savina first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1906, but it has never been a common choice. In 2025, it ranked 4172, with about 1 in every 47,273 girls receiving the name. Its peak year so far was 2024, suggesting a very slight recent increase in interest. The name is used primarily in Pennsylvania among the top states. Savina's trajectory has been stable over the past decade, without dramatic swings. Its rarity and melodic sound may appeal to parents seeking an unusual Italian-inflected name with a classic feel.
Savina is likely an Italian feminine name, possibly derived from the Latin Sabinus, referring to the Sabine tribe of central Italy. Alternatively, it may be a feminine form of Savino, a name of debated origin. The name has seen occasional use in Italy and among Italian diaspora communities, but remains rare. Its modern usage in the United States has been sporadic, with a slight uptick in recent years.
