Karlie

Karlie is a modern English feminine name, a variant spelling of Carlie or Carly, which developed as a diminutive of Carla or Carol. These forms ultimately trace back to the Germanic name Karl, meaning free man or full-grown man, itself the source of Charles and its many derivatives. Karlie gained wider recognition in the early twenty-first century, partly through public figures such as American model Karlie Kloss. Related forms include Carly, Carla, Carley, and Karla.
