Labis is Malay, Tagalog in Origin.

Labis is a rare given name with Hellenic associations. In Greek contexts it is sometimes interpreted as a streamlined spelling of Lambis (Λάμπης), a familiar form of Charalambos or Lambros. Those roots go back to lampros, "bright, radiant," so the name carries connotations of light and celebration. As a forename it appears sporadically in modern records and Greek-diaspora communities, while also occurring as a surname.

Variants and related forms include Lambis, Lambros/Labros, Charalambos, and Babis (a common Greek pet form). Outside Greek usage, Labis overlaps with Labi, an Albanian nickname (from Labinot and the Laberia ethnonym), and echoes the Tagalog word labis, "more than enough," which sometimes inspires contemporary, virtue-style naming. Because of these parallel strands, the name's perceived meaning can range from "bright" to "abundance," depending on cultural frame; it is typically masculine but has modern unisex potential.
