Nyabing is a small town and locality in the Great Southern region of Western Australia. The name is of Aboriginal origin and is thought to derive from the Aboriginal word "ne-yameng", which is the name of an everlasting flower Rhodanthe manglesii. It is one of two localities in the Shire of Kent, the other being Pingrup, covering the east of the shire.[2][3]
