Kili Name Meaning

Kili seems to derive from Icelandic or Old Norse influences. The name Kili is mentioned in the 'Edda', a collection of Old Norse poems from different eras. Kili is also a popular name in the Tolkien universe - from J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit" where it appears as the name of a dwarf.

As the name is relatively unique and was popularized by fictional characters, no well-known real-life personalities carry the name Kili, as far as records show.
