Worldwide, أم علي (أم علي 
) is quite a common principally girly, but very seldom boy's first name. The forename أم علي is habitual in Syria, where it is quite a common predominantly girly, but very infrequently masculine name, Libya, where it is quite a rare principally female, but scarcely male name, and Iraq. Measured by absolute frequency, it is commonest in Iraq, Syria, and Sudan. Much less frequently, أم علي is the last name as well as the forename.
