Kirsi

Kirsi is a Finnish feminine name derived from the native Finnish word for cherry or cherry tree, related to the borrowed term for the fruit. It emerged as a distinctly Finnish given name in the twentieth century and has remained in steady use in Finland. The name is closely tied to its Finnish linguistic roots and does not have widely attested cognates in other European naming traditions, though it shares conceptual kinship with cherry-derived names such as Kirsche in German contexts.
