Etimologia (Inglese)

Affine italiano: naibi

In summary

Uncertain, but likely ultimately from Arabic نَائِب (nāʔib, “deputy”), the second-highest court card in the Mamluk deck. Cognate with Italian naibi.
Alternative theories derive it from Arabic لَعِب (laʕib, “game”) or, with regard to the Islamic prohibition against card games, Arabic مَعِيب (maʕīb, “blameworthy”). These appear less likely, though interchange of sonorants occurs quite often in Ibero-Romance borrowings from Arabic.
