Attly is English in Origin.

Attly is a rare modern given name most plausibly a streamlined respelling of the English surname Atley/Attlee. That surname comes from Old English aet + leah, meaning "at the wood clearing" or "meadow," a habitational label for someone who lived by such a place. The Attlee form is familiar through British prime minister Clement Attlee; as a forename, Atley/Attley surfaces sporadically from the late 1800s and has seen modest, unisex use in recent years in North America.

Spelled Attly, it remains uncommon but on trend with crisp -ly endings. Variants and close relatives include Atley, Attley, Attlee, and Atlee; some also connect it to the Old Norse name Atli (cognate with Attila), yielding the alternative sense "little father." Pronounced AT-lee, Attly carries nature-rooted imagery with a polished surname style. Usual meanings: "at the clearing," "meadow," or, by Norse route, "little father."
