Isli is a modern Albanian masculine given name used since the late 20th century in Albania, Kosovo, and the diaspora. Its crisp two-syllable form and final -i fit contemporary Albanian naming style.

Its etymology is uncertain; many take Isli as a clipped form of Arabic-derived names transmitted through Ottoman influence - especially Islam (“devotion; submission to God”) or Ismail (“God hears”). Others see a recent coinage chosen mainly for sound. Bearers such as footballer Isli Hidi attest to current use. Variants and related forms include Isi (nickname) and the longer bases Ismail and Islam; similar-looking Isley or the Scottish Isla are phonetic parallels but unrelated.
