Around the globe, 梅利 (Melly 
, 梅利 
, Maley 
) is a common predominantly girly, but scarcely boy's first name. The forename 梅利 is characteristic of Reunion, where it is quite a common girly name, Belize, and Indonesia, where it is quite a rare mostly female, but infrequently masculine name. In absolute terms, it is commonest in Indonesia, Philippines, and China. Much less frequently, 梅利 is the last name as well as the forename.
