Meaning & History

Muslim: from a personal name based on Arabic ka῾b ‘fame’, ‘glory’. This was the name of the ancestors of two different tribes in Mecca, Ka῾b bin Rabiah and Ka῾b bin Kilāb. The ka῾ba is an Islamic sacred shrine in Mecca, and the personal name may also have been chosen with reference to this.

Muslim: possibly also from a personal name based on Arabic ka’ba ‘sorrow’.

Japanese: ‘birch tree’. The name is not common in Japan.

Czech (Kába): from the personal name Kába, a derivative of the Biblical name Gabriel.

Hungarian: from kaba ‘falcon’, from Serbian and Croatian koba, kobac ‘sparrowhawk’, hence a nickname for someone thought to resemble a falcon, or a metonymic occupational name for a falconer. Alternatively, it may be a nickname for a slow-witted person, from kába ‘slow’, ‘lethargic’. It could also be a habitational name from places so called in Szabolcs county in northern Hungary and in former Kűlső Szolnok county, now in Romania.
