Ali Dirie

Ali Dirie (Somali: Cali Diiriye, Arabic: علي ديري‎) is a common Somali name. Individuals with this name are often prominent figures in various sectors, including politics, business, and the arts, within Somalia and the Somali diaspora. Due to the patrilineal naming conventions common in Somali culture, "Dirie" functions as a father's name or part of a lineage name, not typically a surname in the Western sense. Therefore, identifying an individual solely by "Ali Dirie" requires further context to differentiate between individuals sharing this name. Without additional identifying information such as profession, location, or other biographical details, a specific "Ali Dirie" cannot be definitively identified or elaborated upon.
