Mehki

Mehki Origin and Meaning

The name Mehki is a boy's name.

Mehki is a masculine name with variations including Mekhi, Mehki, and Mekai. It likely has African or Hebrew origins, possibly deriving from the Hebrew name Machaiah, meaning "who is like the Lord?" Another possibility is that it's connected to the Swahili word "malaika" meaning "angel." The name gained modest popularity in the United States in the late 1990s and early 2000s, partly influenced by actor Mekhi Phifer. Mehki has a melodious quality with its balanced vowel-consonant pattern and carries a contemporary, distinctive feeling. While not among the most common names, it has established recognition while remaining special and uncommon enough to stand out.
