Gari is Basque, English in Origin.
Gari has several independent roots. In English it serves as an alternative spelling of Gary, ultimately from the Germanic element gar, “spear,” seen in compounds such as Gerard and Edgar. Gary rose sharply in the United States in the 1940s–60s, boosted by actor Gary Cooper; the Gari spelling appears occasionally and also functions as a short form of Garibaldi (as with the painter Gari Melchers). Related forms include Gary and Garry (English), Garri (Russian), and the diminutive Garik.
Separately, Gari is a Basque given name meaning “wheat,” evoking harvest and abundance. It gained modern popularity in Spain from the late 20th century and can also act as a nickname for the Basque name Garikoitz. Depending on origin, the name’s meaning is either “spear” (Germanic) or “wheat” (Basque). Note: this is unrelated to the Japanese culinary word gari (pickled ginger).
