<p>Cali as a masculine name has multiple cultural origins and interpretations. While more commonly recognized as a nickname for the feminine Calista or California, its use for boys may derive from Greek elements meaning 'most beautiful' or possibly from Irish Gaelic, related to the name Callaghan. In Turkish, Cali (pronounced 'jah-luh') has separate linguistic roots. The name has risen in usage in recent years partly due to the trend toward location-inspired names and gender-neutral naming practices. As a boy's name, Cali offers a contemporary, breezy quality with its short form and ending vowel sound. Its cross-cultural nature makes it versatile, while its brevity gives it a modern, accessible quality appealing to parents seeking something distinctive yet simple.</p>
