Saidhbhin Origin and Meaning

The name Saidhbhin is a boy's name of Gaelic origin.

Saidhbhin is a rare masculine variation of the Irish name Sadhbh (pronounced 'sive'). It derives from Old Irish and is believed to mean 'sweet' or 'goodness.' The name carries deep Celtic roots and appears in Irish mythology, where Sadhbh was turned into a deer by a dark druid. While the feminine form Sadhbh has seen some revival in Ireland, the masculine variant Saidhbhin remains exceptionally uncommon. The additional suffix '-in' gives it a distinctive quality while maintaining its Gaelic heritage. Parents choosing this name often have strong connections to Irish culture and a desire for a truly unique name with authentic historical significance.
