Weeb Origin and Meaning

The name Weeb is a boy's name.

Weeb is an unusual masculine name with limited historical usage. It may have originated as a nickname or diminutive form of Webb, which itself derives from an English occupational surname referring to a weaver. Alternatively, it could be related to the Old English personal name 'Webbe.' In contemporary times, the term has gained different associations within internet culture, where 'weeb' became shorthand for 'weeaboo,' referring to non-Japanese people with an intense interest in Japanese culture. This modern connotation has likely limited its appeal as a given name. As a formal name, Weeb remains extremely rare globally, with very few documented instances, making it one of the more uncommon name choices for boys.
