About the name Yudi

Wiktionary lists Yudi as a masculine name used in Brazil, taken from the Japanese ゆうじ (Yūji), and gives Yuji as an alternative form. Behind the Name lists several kanji writings for Yūji, such as 祐二 and 雄二, with different meanings depending on the characters, so a meaning does not apply to Yudi as a whole. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 4,017 people named Yudi, with a median age of 9. Almost all were born from the 2000s onward, and the name is almost always male.
