feminine · English (Rare) origin
Caelie is an English invented name, most likely formed as a feminine elaboration or variant spelling of Kaylee or Kayleigh, which themselves derive from a combination of Kay (from the Latin Caius, meaning rejoice) and Lee (from the Old English leah, meaning woodland clearing). The spelling with Cae- may also reflect a visual association with the Latin element caelum, meaning sky or heaven, though this connection is likely incidental rather than etymological. Related forms include Kaylee, Kayleigh, Kaelee, and Cayleigh.
