Bari

Delighting the ear with just four letters and two syllables, Bari is a wonderfully succinct gender-neutral name of Greek, Irish, and Arabic origins. From its Greek roots, Bari adopts the meaning “foreign” from Barbara, opening baby up to a world of possibilities. Whether exploring the great unknown or bringing new ideas from all over to the table, Bari shows baby they can thrive in unfamiliar situations. If inventing and creating are some of your little one’s strongest skills, you’ll love their name’s Arabic translation, “originator.” As a form of Barrie, Bari also stems from the Irish Fionnbarra, meaning “fair-headed,” with barr specifically meaning “head.” Another possible root is the Irish word biorach, meaning “spear”—fit for a mighty warrior.
