Meaning: Bathouse granny

If you have ever heard of Spirited Away, regarded by many as one of the greatest animated films of all time, there is a character named Yubaba whom you will love to hate but can be surprisingly charmed by. Yubaba literally translates to “bathhouse granny,” but there is more to her than meets the eye. She is actually an enterprising business owner, a fierce fashion icon, and a no-nonsense single mom. She also has an extravagance about her that sets her apart from other villainous sorceress. So, choosing Yubaba for your little one is not only a quirky way to keep fiends at a distance, but it may encourage them to add more personality to this already colorful moniker.
