Bagby is a village and civil parish in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire, England, just east of Thirsk. The parish had a population of 470 according to the 2001 census.
The name Bagby comes from an Old Norse personal name Baggi + Old Norse býr, meaning "settlement" or "farmstead". Bagby is recorded in the Domesday Book as Bagebi/Baghebi.[1] (The name is shared with the village of Bigby, Lincolnshire, and the hamlet of Begbie, near Haddington, East Lothian).
