Mowgli
Meaning of Mowgli
The name Mowgli is most famously associated with the beloved character from Rudyard Kipling's "The Jungle Book." This unique name, pronounced MOW-glee (/ˈmaʊlgi/), carries a sense of adventure and curiosity, much like its literary namesake. Though it has no specific linguistic roots, Mowgli captures the imagination with its exotic flair and timeless appeal. In recent years, it has been a rare choice for newborns in the United States, with fewer than 10 occurrences annually. The variation "Mowglee" offers an alternative spelling but retains the same distinctive charm. Choosing the name Mowgli could imbue your child with a spirit of exploration and a connection to classic literature.
