Kerbasi is a rare given name of Persian origin, from karbās ‘coarse cotton, muslin.’ The suffix -i means ‘of, from’ or marks association, so Kerbasi can suggest ‘of muslin/linen’ or, by extension, ‘cloth‑maker’ or ‘weaver.’ The textile term karbās also entered Arabic, Urdu, and Hindi with similar senses.

Variant spellings include Karbasi, Kerbashi, Karbashi, and the clipped Kerbas.
