What is the meaning of the name Seba ?

The baby name Seba is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced SEH-bah (ˈsɛbə); sometimes SEE-bah (ˈsiːbə).

Seba is in Origin.

Seba is a multicultural given name with two main roots. In the Bible, Seba (Hebrew Səvā’, סְבָא) names a son of Cush and an ancient African realm; its exact meaning is uncertain, sometimes linked to a Semitic verb “to drink/be sated” and thus “abundance.” In contemporary naming, Seba functions widely as a short form of Sebastian/Sebastiana in Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and Polish, inheriting the Greek sense of Sebastianus “from Sebaste,” ultimately from sebastos “venerable, august.”

Usage appears in Latin America and parts of Europe, where the nickname often stands alone. Variants and related forms include Seb, Sebas, Sebi, Basti, Bas, and, regionally, Sebá (Portuguese). Feminine counterparts derive from Sebastiana/Sebastienne. Do not confuse with Sheba/Saba, which are separate traditions. As a given name, Seba reads brisk and modern while carrying venerable classical and biblical depth.
