Meaning and background
The story behind Baci
Baci is the plural of the Italian word bacio, a kiss. Italians use the word literally and in affectionate messages, where “baci” may stand for “kisses” at the end of a note. It makes a small, upbeat dog name with a genuine term of affection behind it. Unlike the visually similar surname Bacci, its meaning comes straight from everyday Italian vocabulary.
