Meaning & History

This name combines 千 (sen, chi) meaning "thousand" or 知 with 里 (ri, sato) meaning "league, parent's home, ri (unit of distance - equal to 3.927 km), village," 莉 (rai, ri, rei) meaning "jasmine" or 理 (ri, kotowari) meaning "arrangement, justice, logic, reason, truth."

Chiri, using the kanji 千, is relatively rare compared to its counterpart Senri.
