Throughout the world, Каваи (乾 
, Kawai 
, Kavay 
) is a common largely boy's, but uncommonly female forename. The forename Каваи is habitual in Eastern Asia, particularly Macao, where it is quite a common epicene name, Hong Kong, and China, where it is quite a rare principally masculine, but scarcely girly name. Measured by absolute frequency, it is commonest in China, Hong Kong, and Nigeria. Very seldom, Каваи is the last name as well as the forename.
