History & Origin

Calisi is a contemporary coinage that echoes Khaleesi, an invented title from a much-watched fantasy story that inspired a small burst of similar-sounding names. Calisi smooths that sound into a flowing girl's name. It has no traditional root of its own, and its American use was brief and small, clustering in the early twenty-tens.

Calisi was never a common name. It appeared in United States records only in small numbers, given to fewer than twenty girls a year at its peak in the early twenty-tens.

Did you know? Calisi rode a wave of names inspired by a popular fantasy series, softening the invented title Khaleesi into a gentle given name.
