Baibín
Baibín Origin and Meaning
Baibín is a traditional Irish feminine name with Gaelic origins. It's the diminutive form of Báb or Bába, affectionately meaning 'little baby' or 'little darling.' Pronounced approximately as 'BAH-been' or 'BY-been,' this name carries a gentle, endearing quality. Baibín remains relatively rare even within Ireland, representing a deep connection to Irish linguistic heritage. The name experienced limited usage historically, primarily in Irish-speaking regions. As interest in preserving Celtic cultural names has increased, Baibín has seen occasional revival among families seeking authentic Irish names. The inclusion of the accent mark (fada) over the 'i' in its traditional spelling highlights its Gaelic pronunciation and heritage.
