Crosbi is English in Origin.

Crosbi is a modern, streamlined spelling of Crosby, an English surname-turned-given name. It derives from Old Norse kross "cross" + byr "farm, settlement," referring to a farmstead marked by a roadside or churchyard cross; several northern English locales bear the name after Viking settlement across the Danelaw. The core meaning is "settlement by the cross."

Used as a surname since the Middle Ages in Lancashire, Cumbria, and Yorkshire, it entered given-name use in the late 19th and especially late 20th century alongside the vogue for surnames as first names. Cultural resonance from singer Bing Crosby and athletes with the surname kept the sound familiar, though Crosbi itself remains rare. Variants include Crosby (standard), Crosbie (Irish/Scottish), Crosbey and Crosbee (rare), and modern tweaks like Krosby. Informal short forms such as Cros or Bee occasionally appear. The name is unisex but leans masculine.
