Kafie is Arabic in Origin.
Kafie is a modern, rare given name most plausibly derived from Arabic Kāfī, meaning “sufficient” or “all-providing,” a term with devotional overtones. The -ie ending softens the sound in English and can read as a feminine elaboration of Kafi. The root is recognizable across Arabic, Persian, and Urdu, while kafi also names a South Asian Sufi lyric form, giving the name a subtle literary association.
Documented usage appears sporadically from the late 20th century in the Middle East, North America, and parts of Africa, typically as a unisex choice but more frequent for girls. Variants and related forms include Kafi, Kafia/Kafiya (Arabic feminine), Kaffy (notably in West Africa), and the look-alike Caffie, which is usually an English surname-based given name rather than a true cognate. Similar-sounding yet etymologically distinct is the Akan name Kofi. Possible nicknames are Kaf and Fi. The core meaning centers on sufficiency and being “enough.”
Kafie is about as rare as a name gets. In all, it appears just 15 times, across 10 countries.
