Baich Family History
Baich Name Meaning
Americanized form of Serbian and Croatian Bajić and Baić: patronymic from the personal names Baja and Bajo which are pet forms of the names Bratoljub (it is composed of the Slavic elements brat ‘brother’ and ljub ‘to love’ or ‘dear’) and Bajislav (see Bajo ) or from homonymous nicknames based on the hypocoristics baja and bajo meaning ‘little brother’ and ‘elder man daddy’. Americanized form of Slovenian Bajič: probably a derivative of bajati ‘to narrate (unbelievable stories)’ also ‘to cast a spell’ (compare Baitz ).
