Chi is also used as a masculine name in Vietnamese. A known male bearer of this name was Ho Chi Minh (listed in the "Namesakes" section of this name), a Vietnamese revolutionary and politician. However, Chi is more common for females. So, I think that the "Gender" of this name should be changed from "Feminine" to "Feminine & Masculine".Sources: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ho_Chi_Minh https://www.names.org/n/chi/about https://forebears.io/forenames/chi
In the magical girl anime Six Hearts Princess/ 6HP, Chi is the name of a cat mascot with a purple color theme. This may not be the same usage of the name, however.

My name is Khanh Chi. Khanh meaning happy, Chi meaning branch. People mistake it for the Chinese "qi" which is energy but I guess it sounds cooler than branch. No American can ever pronounce Chi like the way Vietnamese people pronounce it so I'm not even going to explain. Americans pronounce it sort of like a mix of Chi and Shi, not the same but I actually like it better.
This is the Japanese word for 'blood'. I like it though, as a character name but not for a real person. I think it would be cute as a name for a chibi or faerie.
