Babubhai

Babubhai is a Gujarati name, common in India, primarily used as a given name for males. It is often used as a term of endearment or respect, similar to "brother" or "Mr." in English. The name combines "Babu," which can refer to a clerk, gentleman, or child (depending on the context), and "bhai," a term meaning brother. Thus, Babubhai loosely translates to "respected brother" or "gentleman brother." The name carries connotations of respect, familiarity, and often affection, particularly within familial or close community settings. It can also be used as a surname, though less frequently. The prevalence of the name is largely concentrated within the Gujarati-speaking population of India and among the Gujarati diaspora.
