Burki

Burki is a Swiss name for boys. A short alternative to the name Burkhart, it's derived from the German word _burghard,_ meaning “strong fort or castle.” This moniker is especially popular among Swiss German speakers, who make up around 63% of the country’s population. Choosing this name for baby can help build out their self-esteem and encourage them to fight for what they love. Burki is also the name of a Pashtun tribe in Pakistan and Afghanistan. If you claim ancestry to the Burki people, the name can gift your little one a tribe and a community they can always depend on, wherever they are in the world.
