Ali

Is Ali a boy or girl name?

Boy (Ali, Alasdair) or girl (Alison) in my experience.

Definitely both

Both.
Alistair, Alexander,.Alison, Alyssia to name a few I've heard shortened to Ali.
Myself included

I know a girl called Ali, not short for anything.

G

Either

To me I'd assume it's a nickname for a full name that could be girl or boy depending on full name

It’s a nn that can be used for both boys and girls. Eg alistair or Alison

My immediate thought was a Muslim boy's name. If used on its own. Of course Alistair and Alison are shortened to Ali but that's a different thing.

Ali is an Arabic boy's name or a shortened name for both boys and girls

I think it would be a bit strange and inappropriate to use the name Ali for a boy a girl unless it is a nn, if you aren't muslim or Arabic speaking. I guess it might be okay for a girl if you used a different spelling.

Male name. Or unisex nickname.

I know both male and female
