Comments for the name Kari (1)

Kari is a very poplular name nowdays. I would love to have this name, it sounds vibrant.

My name is Kari and I don't see it spelled this way very often.

Voice-Over Actress Kari Wahlgren bears this name, and it's pronounced like "sorry."

Kari is a name that feels cute, adorable, friendly and strong. I prefer it over Katherine.

Kari is the teenage babysitter in the animated film "The Incredibles."

Actress Kari Wuhrer bears this beautiful name.

A name similar to this is "Kairi" with an added "i", although it isn't pronounced the same. It can be pronounced KI-ree or CAR-ee.

This is my name, and many people pronounce it "Carrie" which I hate! The babysitter in the Incredibles has the same name, and she describes it best: "It's like Carrie, but with a K instead of a C an AH instead of an AY and one R instead of two and an I instead of an IE." Love it! And, Kari Whuer (sp?) says it the right way too. I was named this because my Great Aunt and father didn't think that Karina went with my middle name, Andrea, so they shortened it. Go figure.

My name is Kari and I love my name. Unlike some of the others with this name, you do say my name like "Carrie". Kari...Care-e!

Kari Byron, from Mythbusters, has this name (though I think she pronounces it like 'Carrie'.) This is also the name of one of the girls from Digimon: Digital Monsters, and is taken from her original Japanese name, 'Hikari'.

My name is Kari Lea and when younger and I was told that it was to be pronounced "Car-ee Lay-a" I hated it because it was "different". So I have been stuck with Kari Lea (pronounced like Carrie Lee) for 47 years. If we only had hindsight. Now I would love to be called "Car-ee Lay-a". I love the name.

Kari Sundgren is the enormously likeable main character of Susan Runholt's Kari and Lucas series (beginning with "The Mystery of the Third Lucretia").

Christian singer Kari Jobe bears this name. She is so talented and amazing!

I have always had it pronounced Car-ee or like someone else said, it rhymes with sorry! It is SO frustrating to seldom have anyone know how to pronounce it when you first meet, but even more frustrating when people don't even try!

KARI is a great name, it is my first name. But people can never say Kari right, I always get Carrie which I don't like. Kari rhymes with sorry.

It's pronounced cah-ri, or kah-ri. I'm from Sweden but it's the same pronunciation in Norway.

Kari is one of the characters on the popular Japanese manga TV series Digimon: Digital Monsters.
