BabsDami
BabsDami is the friendship between Barbara Gordon and Damian Wayn

Canon
In the DC Super Hero Girls web series of G1, Batgirl gets tasked to babysit Damian in "Kid Napped." Something that either of them were happy about, since Robin felt insulted that his father thinks that he needs a sitter while Barbara had received a call about an attack and wants to help her friends deal with it. Along with the young Robin making Batgirl's task of looking after him hard when he runs out of the room, leading his red headed babysitter to chase after him. Wanting to help her friends deal with shadow monsters rather than looking after a boy who has been acting as a brat towards her, lead to Batgirl calling Robin a waste of time. This got Damian to state that him being one of her nonfriends has him not wanting waste her time either. Realising that her words might have hurt Robin she tries to make up for it by offering to tuck him into bed, but Robin refuses and went to bed so Batgirl could leave to help her friends. Unknown to the two masked heroes, however, a pair of Shadow Creatures had travelled into the room through Batgirl's phone in order to kidnap the young Bay Wonder. Once Batgirl realised and uncovered the ransom note they left, she rushed to his rescue. Batgirl wasn't too surprised to find a freed Damian having everything under control by apprehending the two shadow villains who kidnapped him on his own. Still feeling terrible for her earlier words to him, Batgirl apologizes for what she said and reassures him that she does see him as one of her friends. Damian also apologizes for the way he acted and decides to let Batgirl tuck him into bed, even though he can't promise her that he'll sleep after words.

Fanon
Due to the big age gap between the two, people tend to ship them as friends. That is why AO3 has 48+ gen fanfics and only 8+ het fics. Even though Barbara forming romantic-like attachments to those who have served as Robin isn't something new, and there has been a small group who het shipped Damian with Stephanie Brown, people prefer to have her as another one of his big sister-like figures. Next to Cass and Steph.

Batfamily
Batfamily is the ship between Bruce Wayne, Selina Kyle, Alfred Pennyworth, Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Stephanie Brown, Tim Drake, Cassandra Cain, Damian Wayne, Lucius Fox, and the other sidekicks of Batman; also known as the Batfam

Fanon
The Batfamily is considered to be one of the most popular superhero families in the fandom world of comics, as well as adaptions of the DC universe. From how it started with a man who lost his parents and ended up becoming a father and mentor to those who wish to aid Batman in keeping their city safe, while keeping to his code.

Fans who are exited for the new Batman game, Gotham Knights like the way it focuses on the Batfamily and how four of its young sidekick members would cope with keeping their city safe without Batman to guide them. Some people are hoping for DLCs that would allow them to play other Knights than just Nightwing, Red Hood, Batgirl and Robin. Or at least have other members of the Batfamily appear in the game, before or after they too became Gotham's nightly protectors. Along with suspecting that Bruce Wayne might still be alive and would later be found by his partners, like with what happened with Caption America in the Marvel's Avengers game.

On AO3, there are 2196+ fanfics of the whole Batfamily that are tagged under "Batfamily members."

DamiMar'iJon
DamiMar'iJon is the polyship between Damian Wayne, Mar'i Grayson and Jonathan Kent.

Canon
Damian Wayne is the son of Batman and Talia al Ghul. This makes him an heir to the world's greatest crime-fighter, and its greatest super-villain Ra's al Ghul. Damian became the fifth Robin, working alongside his father as Batman.

Mar'i Grayson, Nightstar, is the daughter of Teen Titans Robin and Starfire in the not too distant future. Her mother died from a circulatory illness when she was young. This happened despite Bruce Wayne's best efforts to help Starfire. Her relationship with her father was somewhat strained due to them being on opposite sides of the conflict. By contrast, she shared a close relationship with Bruce Wayne whom she called Gramps. However, as she grew older, she realized that the world was not the one her parents knew. As such, she devolved into a vigilante, striking out at other metahumans for little or no reason.

Jonathan "Jon" Kent is the firstborn son of Kryptonian superhero Superman and news reporter Lois Lane. He fought crime alongside his father as the young hero Superboy. After growing up in a short period of time, Jon went to the future and joined the Legion of Super-Heroes before returning to the present just in time to pick up the mantle of Superman.

Fanon
Even though they haven't met fans often ship them because of their similarities such as tragic past, family issues, etc. In the DC comics, Damian and Jon have met in a series of comics called "Super Sons" and Damian and Mar'i have met in the "Kingdome Come" comic series, thus they make individual ships : DamiJon and Demonfire.

Writers portray Mar'i and Jon a bubbly personality and they mostly bond over the fact that they are hybrids, i.e. Mar'i being half Tamaranean and Jon being a half Kryptonian. Both of them thoroughly enjoy troubling Damian.

DickJayTim is the ship between Dick Grayson, Jason Todd and Tim Drake.

Fanon
On AO3 the family-ship has 375+ fanfics, along with 288+ "poly" fics. The large number of poly fanfics could be due to the time before Tim officially became Dick and Jasons' brother, from how Tim still had his parents when he started out as Robin before they died and Bruce decided to adopt him.
