Hi A Welsh-speaking person on the Monmouthshire message board has written to say that it comes from a WElsh word"sibwm" and that jibbons is a "Wenglish" word, Wenglish being the language spoken in parts of Monmouthshire. This was mostly the Western coal-mining valleys(including Newbridge, Mon where I was born)
