In Goidelic mythology, Banba, sometimes spelled Banbha, was the patron spirit of Ireland, wife of King MacCuill, and a goddess of war and fertility.

With her sisters (daughters of Fiachna), Fodla and Ériu, she was part of an important triumvirate of goddesses, the first settlers of Ireland.

Banba is used as a name for Ireland in poetry.

Other spelling: Banbha.
