  Bolkly (Egyptian Arabic: بولكلى) is a neighbourhood in Alexandria, Egypt. The neighborhood is officially named Bulkeley, written as Bolkly. In speech however, the name has been modified over generations into a more pronounceable one for the local tongue, "Bokla" (Egyptian Arabic: بوكلا).
  
  The neighbourhood is named after H. Bulkeley, one of the founders of the Strada Ferrata tra Alessandria e Ramleh company, which created the first electric tramway line in Alexandria. Other neighbourhoods of Alexandria also bear names of its railway system's founders (Shods, Fleming, Stanley).
