Kali is the patron goddess of the Roma, the largest Indian diaspora in the world. In predominately Catholic countries, she is disguised as "Saint" Kali-Sara.
The name Kali is the name of an Hindu goddess who was thought to be a vampire who drinks the blood of animals only and protects her people from demons by carrying a sickel sword that she kills them with.

I love the dark feel of the name. Sorry, I'm kinda obsessed with dark- or evil-sounding names. I think it should be both feminine and masculine, though. But that's just my opinion.The goddess Kali is fierce and destructive. Her name also means "Dark Female". Her worship is associated with skulls, cemeteries, and blood. She is black and gaunt, with an azure face streaked with yellow, and her gaze is considered ferocious. Her hair is shown as unkempt or splayed, and is sometimes braided with serpents. Her power is originative and destructive. The weapons or head of a demon she is usually seen holding symbolize this. No, I am not Hindu.
