Worldwide, Galanis (Galanis 
, Γαλάνης , Галанис 
) is a rare largely male, but infrequently feminine given name. The forename Galanis is characteristic of Greece, where it is quite a rare dominantly masculine, but infrequently female name, and China, where it is an extremely rare masculine name. Much more prevalently, Galanis is the last name as well as the forename.
