Sabbe is a rare, multi-origin unisex name. In Pali, sabbe means “all, everyone,” a core word in Theravada formulas such as sabbe sattā sukhi hontu (“may all beings be happy”). It ultimately relates to Sanskrit sarva and conveys inclusiveness, compassion, and communal well‑being, which makes Sabbe an appealing modern virtue name in South and Southeast Asian Buddhist contexts and diasporas.

In the Low Countries, Sabbe also appears as a Flemish–Dutch surname that can serve as a given name. It likely arose from a medieval short form of Sabina/Sabine (from Latin Sabinus, “a Sabine”) or from the monastic name Sabbas (Greek, from Aramaic saba, “elder”), and is documented chiefly in Belgium and northern France. Variants and related forms include Sabe, Sabé, Sabba, Sabbi/Sabby; cognates Sabina, Sabine, Saba, Sava, and Sabbas. Usage today remains uncommon but recognizable across cultures.
