ArchivesRe: Searching for meaning and backround for the name Makhi
in reply to a message by knowledge20021984
I did a search found it is a place name in Pakistan
http://www.oxfam.org.uk/what_we_do/issues/gender/links/1003pakistan.htm
The remote desert area of Makhi and Achhro Thar in Sanghar District is 300 km northeast of Karachi.
Also see

It also came up on a lot of sites as both a forename and a surname
A childs smile is worth more to me than Gold

Also it is apparently a biblical name mentioned in Deuteronomy 13:15 From the tribe of Gad, Geu'el son of Makhi.

Interesting; most English Bibles spell that name as Machi.
