It's one way of shortening "Gabrielle"

It's a cute nickname for Gabe Newell

Which ironically also works with this

Only if someone misspells Gabby.

Actually, Spanish speakers spell it Gaby as it's consistent with their language

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

same with Polish speakers

Or if you remove the third letter of Gabby, you'd get Gaby.

Just follow the instructions twice, but not three times.

If someone misspells Gabby... Maybe by removing the third letter from the name? It all circles back to the initial meme!
