Re: Why is Milani so popular in U.S.?
in reply to a message by Felie
As other people have said, it's similar to other popular names...
Imani
Amani
Alani
Leilani
Kehlani
Mila
I think part of the appeal is that it sounds ethnically diverse/ambiguous to an American ear, like its origin is obscure enough here that it'd probably sound equally as likely to be related to Imani, Leilani, or Mila.
