Bathing or at the baths
Derived from the Germanic word for 'baths', it originally referred to people from the German region of Baden-Baden, famous for its thermal springs. As a surname-turned-given-name, it carries a sense of geography and heritage. It is also sometimes associated with the English word 'bade', though the German toponymic root is the primary etymological source.
