Andi 2 is an Albanian masculine given name derived from the Albanian word ëndë, meaning "desire, pleasure." This etymology reflects a broader trend in Albanian onomastics of using nouns or adjectives with positive connotations as personal names. While not as common as some traditional Albanian names, Andi is a concise, modern name that fits well within contemporary naming practices in Albania and among the Albanian diaspora. However, it is distinct from the more widespread Germanic-derived name Andi, which is a diminutive of Andreas. Its usage is almost exclusively limited to Albanian-speaking communities, and it does not appear in significant historical figures or in widely known sources outside of the region.
