Meaning: From a coal town; Faithful
There's something satisfying about finding a name that literally sounds like its meaning! (Word nerds unite: anyone for some onomatopoeic onomatology?!) Anyway … Colbie is one such example, and this traditional British name means "from a coal town." The name Colbie traditionally points to a person who came from a mining community. Colby is the typical male spelling, but Colbie is equally on-trend for babies of any gender. Colby also has Hebrew roots, where its meaning points to positive attributes of someone faithful and true, just like baby!
