Sib
sib
Origin:Greek
Meaning:Prophetess; Of Sybil; Benign; Kind; Auspicious; Of Shiva
Sib is a gender-neutral name rooted in Greek mythology and Hindu deities alike. As a variant of the Bengali Shib, which comes from the Sanskrit Shiva, it is intricately tied to the widely varying meanings of "benign," "kind," and "auspicious." These qualities connect to Shiva, the Hindu god of destruction and restoration—an extraordinary figure who's both fierce and gentle rolled up in on surprising package! He's also known as the husband of Parvati and is worshipped as one of the supreme gods in Hinduism. Sib can also be a cute short form of Sybil, a name from the Greek Sibylla, meaning "prophetess." In Greek mythology, Sybil was a wise oracle with the gift of seeing the future. Whether baby Sib draws strength from the mighty Shiva or clairvoyant-like abilities from the all-knowing Sybil, they’re sure to be inspired by powerful figures from the past.
