I'm confused now. So did the word "Bible" come from Greek "biblio"? Would make sense, though I don't know if that is indeed the case.

"Bible" just means a collection of books, which is what the Bible is, a collection of books and letters.

It would make perfect sense, because the New Testament was (for the most part) written in koine greek, the common language at the time of the early church.
