Babinci () is a village in the Municipality of Ljutomer in northeastern Slovenia. The area belongs to the traditional Styria region and is now included in the Mura Statistical Region.

==Name== Babinci was attested in written sources 1280–1295 as villa Wakendorf. Like similar place names (e.g., Babna Brda, Babiči, Babna Gora, etc.), the name is derived from the Slovene common noun baba. In addition to the basic meaning 'old woman', baba often means 'rocky outcrop, cliff; mountain top, peak' and generally refers to a local terrain feature.
