"Palli" (Place name endings) {Dr. Selvakumar}
-Y
along with its variations.
"Palli" is actually a Sanskrit word. Palla a pile of grain. Thus
Palli is place where there are piles of grain, i.e. is a
market-place. Corresponding words are "ganj" and "hat", still
common in North.
The ending "Palli" used to be more common in North in the past.

in Telugu "palli" means village(eg: madanapalli), both these words should have
come from Sanskrit.
