Around the world, Kofi (Kofi , كوفي , Кофи , among others...) is a common principally boy's, but very seldom girly first name. The forename Kofi is characteristic of Ghana, where it is a common masculine name, Libya, where it is quite a common predominantly boy's, but very infrequently girly name, and Qatar, where it is quite a rare male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in Ghana, Nigeria, and the United States. Very seldom, Kofi is the last name as well as the forename.
Kofi is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Kofi Akua .
