Bohdi

Bohdi is a masculine name that represents a variation of the more traditional spelling 'Bodhi.' The name comes from Sanskrit origins meaning 'awakening' or 'enlightenment' and is significant in Buddhist tradition, referring to the state of enlightenment reached by Buddha. This alternative spelling maintains the spiritual meaning while giving it a slightly different look. Bohdi gained popularity in Western countries during the early 21st century, reflecting growing interest in names with Eastern spiritual connections. The name appeals to parents seeking a name with both meaningful depth and a contemporary feel. While still relatively uncommon, Bohdi has been gradually increasing in usage, particularly among parents drawn to its spiritual significance and distinctive sound.

Bohdi is also given to girls.
