As far as I know, in Italian it does not mean anythng specific.
Reply:It hasn't got any meaning in Italian, but in Albanian it's written kali and means the horse...Maybe is a word from the arbëreshs(the Albanians that to save from the Ottoman Empire in that time went in Calabria and Sicily...But I'm not really sure...
Reply:It could be an abbreviation of Calogero.. I think..
