Mati

Mati is an Estonian masculine given name functioning as a short form of Mattias, which itself derives from the Hebrew name Mattityahu, meaning gift of God or gift of Yahweh. The name entered European usage through the New Testament apostle Matthew, and its Estonian diminutive form Mati became an independent given name in its own right. Related forms in other languages include Mats in Swedish, Matti in Finnish, and Matthias in German and Greek.
