Marli

Marli is a feminine name of uncertain origin, though it is believed to be a variant of the name Marley or a combination of the names Mary and Lily.

The name Marley itself is of English origin and is derived from a surname that originated from a place name meaning 'pleasant wood' or 'pleasant clearing'. It gained popularity as a given name after the famous Jamaican musician Bob Marley.

On the other hand, if Marli is a combination of Mary and Lily, it would carry the meanings associated with those names. Mary is a name of Hebrew origin meaning 'beloved' or 'bitter', while Lily is a name of English origin referring to the beautiful flower.

Regardless of its exact origin, Marli is a charming and unique name that has a soft and feminine sound. It is a relatively uncommon name, which may appeal to parents seeking a distinctive name for their daughter.
