The area is sometimes referred to as Lambton Baby Point but is not to be confused with the Lambton neighbourhood to its north.
Baby Point is pronounced bobby point after James Baby, a government official who settled in the area in 1816 where it became his family’s legacy until a descendant sold the land in 1910-12. A gate at the Jane and Baby Point access point marks the entry to the exclusive residential enclave of west Toronto.
