In all the world, Balti (Balti 
, بالتي

The forename Balti is habitual in Northern Africa, particularly Tunisia, where it is quite a common largely male, but infrequently female name, Libya, where it is quite a rare masculine name, and Morocco, where it is a rare masculine name. Measured by absolute frequency, it is the most numerous in Tunisia, India, and Algeria. More frequently, Balti is the last name as well as the forename.
