Mhairi or Mhàiri is a Scottish female given name, ultimately derived from the name Mary. Etymologically, it is an erroneous form, based on the Scottish Gaelic vocative form a Mhàiri (pronounced [əˈvaːɾʲɪ]), from the nominative Màiri [maːɾʲɪ]. In Scottish English it is usually pronounced [vaːrɪ]. Variations of this form also occur, such as Mhari or Mhairie.

It may refer to:

  • Mhairi-Louise Hickey, singer and songwriter
  • Mhairi McKay, Scottish golfer
  • Mhairi Spence, modern pentathlete
  • Mhairi Black, MP for Paisley
