It has no meaning in English - I don't speak the other languages
mentioned. You can likely find on the web or in the library dictionaries
that translate from the above languages to your native language. Check
there to see if BONI means anything.

Although it has no meaning in English, "boni" does sound like
the word "bony" which means very thin. If your figure is a chubby,
round one, this will seem odd in English.

"Boni" in Latin means "belonging to good/a good". This
meaning may carry through all the Romance languages. Check
<http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr> for translations. It
gives "profit" for the French meaning of "boni".

In Italian, BUONI means: they are good. Either in taste and in
behaviour.
In a slangish, dialect informal way of speaking (around Rome mostly)
means the same thing.

Basically, 'they are good' or 'be good' as well.

In spanish, BONITO means pretty (not 100% sure, tho). (remember
Madonna's song La Isla Bonita, the beautiful island)

Boney also sounds similar to "boner," which means a male erection.
if pronounced as "BAH-NEE," that is the name of a woman in English, spelled
B-o-n-n-i-e.
