Alli would make a very sweet sounding, although slightly childish given name or a lovely nickname for Aliisa or Alina in Finnish, if the plural of it ('allit') wasn't slang for arm fat. This term was apparently derived from Allina "Alli" Paasikivi, the wife of president Juho Kusti Paasikivi, who wore sleeveless outfits in old age.

166 people in the US actually gave their daughters the name 'Alli' as a full name in 2012. I prefer Allie.
Alli Mauzey is an American stage actress. Her big break came when she originated the role of Lenora in the 2008 Broadway production of the musical "Cry Baby", for which she won a Theatre World Award. She also served as standby to Kendra Kassebaum's Glinda in the musical "Wicked" from April - October 2007. She then replaced Kassebaum in the role, performing from November 2008 - August 2009.
