Sebille is in Origin.

Sebille is a medieval French feminine given name deriving from Old French Sebile/Sibile, ultimately from Latin Sibylla and Greek Sibylla, “prophetess” or “seer.” The name entered French and Anglo-Norman records from the 12th century and spread to England after the Norman Conquest, where related forms appear in charters and rolls. In chivalric and Arthurian romance, figures called Sebile/Sebille appear as enchantresses or queens, reinforcing its courtly aura; in Christian art and literature, the Sibyls were revered as pagan voices foretelling Christ, which sustained the name’s prestige.

Variants include French Sibylle/Sybille, English Sybil/Sibyl, German Sibylle, Italian Sibilla, Spanish/Portuguese Síbila/Sibila, Dutch/Scandinavian Sibylla, Polish Sybilla, and Turkish Sibel; medieval spellings range from Sebile to Sebille and Sibile. Nicknames include Sib and Sibby. Despite its rarity today, Sebille offers a historically grounded, Francophone twist on the timeless Sibyl tradition.
