Mesi is Albanian in Origin.

Mesi is a cross-cultural given name with several credible roots. In Finnish and Estonian it derives from the common noun mesi, “honey; nectar,” a Uralic word that conveys sweetness and warmth. In that context it functions as a modern nature name and also a short form of the Finnish Mesimarja (“arctic bramble”). In Ethiopian usage (Amharic/Tigrinya), Mesi appears as a familiar diminutive of Meseret (መሠረት), meaning “foundation; basis,” giving it a steadfast, grounded sense. These sources make Mesi usable for girls in Finnic settings and often as a unisex nickname in Ethiopian communities.

As a standalone given name, Mesi gained visibility in Finland and Estonia from the late 20th century with the rise of nature-inspired names, while in the Horn of Africa and diaspora it has long circulated as an affectionate short form. Related forms include Mesimarja and Meseret; meanings range from “honey/nectar” to “foundation.”
