Libi (name)
Libi is a modern Jewish name (ליבי) according to various baby name sites. It is derived from the plural of the Hebrew word 'lev' (heart), which is 'libbot',[1] leading it to be described as meaning "my heart". It is also occasionally spelled Libby.[2] Alternatively, it has been listed as meaning "loved one", most likely deriving from Yiddish and the German word 'liebe'.[3]
Libi is also rarely used as a variant of Libby, a diminutive of Elizabeth.
Libi in Arabic means 'Libyan' and is typically used as part of a surname for people of Libyan origin, al-Libi.
