Moirang Thoibi (Old Manipuri: Moilang Thoipi) or Ewanglon Thoibi (Old Manipuri: Ewanglon Thoipi) is the main character of the Khamba Thoibi story from ancient Moirang Kangleirol legends.[1][2] She is a princess of the Ancient Moirang kingdom.[3] She is not the king's daughter. Rather, she is the daughter of the King's younger brother Chingkhu Akhuba and therefore the fraternal niece of King Chingkhu Telheiba of Moirang.[4][5][6] Khuman Khamba, a poor orphan prince, fell in love with Thoibi.[2][7][5][6]
The word "Thoibi" means "perfection" or "completion of beauty and accomplishments."[8]
