Ayrlie is English in Origin.

Ayrlie is a modern, stylistic respelling of Airlie, a Scottish place-name and surname tied to Airlie parish and castle in Angus. The toponym's etymology is debated, but it is often linked to Gaelic airigh (àirigh), meaning a shieling or summer pasture, suggesting a sense of grazing and seasonal shelter. Through the noble title Earl of Airlie (Clan Ogilvy), the name appears in records from the 17th century as a territorial designation rather than a given name.

Used as a first name chiefly since the late 20th century, especially in Australia and New Zealand, helped by the resort name Airlie Beach, Ayrlie feels contemporary while retaining Scottish roots. It is unisex but skews feminine in modern use. Variants include Airlie, Airley, Ayrley, Ayrleigh, and Aylie; short forms Ari, Airy, and Lee/Leigh are common. Overall meaning: from the shieling or summer pasture, or dweller by the summer grazing.
