Worldwide, Ули (Uli , Uly , Ueli ) is a common epicene given name. The first name Ули is habitual in Switzerland, where it is quite a rare boy's name, Germany, where it is quite a rare predominantly masculine, but very infrequently female name, and Indonesia, where it is quite a rare unisex name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in Indonesia, India, and Germany. Much less frequently, Ули is the last name as well as the forename.
Ули is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Uli Kunkel , the fictional character from The Big Lebowski; Herr von Bödefeld , the fictional character from Sesamstraße; Uli der Fehlerteufel , the character created by Ilse Herrndobler and Uli , the operatic character in the opera Neues vom Tage by Paul Hindemith.
