In America, it's gaining popularity for both girls and boys, offering a distinctive twist on "Carrie" for girls and a nod to royalty for boys.
Traditionally associated with the masculine gender, Khari has been used extensively for female babies in the U.S. Its similarity to the more familiar "Carrie" has contributed to its widespread appeal as a girl's name.
