Debbiyeh is a Chouf-area settlement in Mount Lebanon.
Interpretations of the name Debbiyeh vary. Freyha traced it to the Syriac Debbabta (a fly, perhaps a kind of locust); folk tales link it to 'spring/grove of the doe' (ain al-dabba). Given the village's coastal proximity and Phoenician-era remains found there, the author believes the origin is Phoenician 'Tsabia', meaning gazelle and figuratively beautiful.
