Ibbot
IB-it
A rare medieval English/Scottish name, likely a diminutive or variant tied to Isabel/Elizabeth forms.
Meaning
The excerpted sources place Ibbot among older Christian-era names and connect it with Scotland, and one note groups it near Isabel/Elizabeth traditions. In that older naming context, it appears to function as a pet or diminutive form rather than a name with a separate transparent literal meaning of its own.
