Bache roughly means 'Uncle'. They did not have to always be a real relative. It was a name or title of respect. Same with 'Nani' which meant Lady. So if a lady's name was Mary, you might call her Mary Nani; or accually 'Mutti Nani'. If the man's name was Jim, you would address him as 'Imre Bachie'. That's how it was in my family. Hope this helps.
