Bodi

Meaning of Bodi

Bodi is the kind of name that slips off the tongue like a warm breeze dancing through a Havana courtyard—short, bright, and impossible to forget. Rooted in several soils at once, it began life in Hungary as a pet form of Boldizsár (their take on Balthazar), yet it also echoes the Sanskrit “bodhi,” the moment of awakening under the Bodhi tree; no wonder the name feels both playful and wise. Stateside, surfers and free spirits caught wind of it through the cult-classic character Bodhi in “Point Break,” and its laid-back swagger has quietly ridden the ranking waves ever since, never cracking the top but always showing up—much like a loyal friend who brings dulce de leche to every fiesta. All told, Bodi carries the sparkle of enlightenment, the dash of globe-trotting adventure, and the easy rhythm of a Latin street song, making it a four-letter passport to possibility for any little boy who wears it.
