¿Por qué es masculine?

Bebê is masculine in Portuguese. While it does derive from English "baby" and was adopted in the 20th century, the masculine gender assignment was not primarily influenced by the "-ê" ending pattern. Rather, "bebê" is masculine by convention as established in Portuguese usage, though the exact historical reason for this gender assignment is not definitively documented. It remains a modern loanword without Latin roots.
