Etymology
The first part of the barangay's name, Ibayo, comes from Tagalog for "further" or "other side". On the other hand, the second part, Tipas, comes from Tagalog tinagpas or tiga-gapas, which means "to cut" or "to break", representing the traditional practice of farmers cutting through rice crops during harvest.
