Ushi is a gender-neutral name of Chinese, German, and Swiss origin. As a Chinese name, Ushi is generally used for boys, and means “strong as an ox” or “a plant.” As a German name, it may be a variant of the girl’s name Uschi, which is a shortened form of Ursula. Ursula is a diminutive of the Latin word _ursa_, meaning “bear,” and therefore means “little bear.” An adorable name for your own cuddly little bear cub! Ushi is also a very popular name in Switzerland, where German is an official language. With its variety of meanings and cross-cultural appeal, this versatile name is a winner all round.
