About Ibis
Ibis is the name of a distinctive long-legged wading bird with a long, curved bill. The word entered English through Greek and Latin, while the bird has an especially rich cultural history in ancient Egypt, where the sacred ibis was associated with Thoth, the god connected with wisdom, writing and knowledge. As an animal name, Ibis has no inherent gender and fits naturally within the tradition of nature-inspired names. Unusual, elegant and strongly connected with the natural world, Ibis is a memorable gender-neutral choice with an intriguing mythological dimension.
