Caelier is in Origin.

Caelier is a rare modern given name that blends the Latin cael- "sky, heaven" (as in caelum and the Roman nomen Caelius) with a French-style -ier ending. The result reads as 'heavenly' or 'of the sky,' an interpretation reinforced by the ecclesiastical Latin phrase in caelo. Some also hear an echo of the French surname Célier/Celier, from Old French celier "storeroom" (Latin cellarium), though as a forename Caelier is used for its celestial feel rather than occupational sense.

Usage is contemporary, surfacing in the late 20th and early 21st centuries in English- and French-speaking contexts, often in fantasy and literary naming. It remains very uncommon and tends to be perceived as unisex. Related forms and lookalikes include Cael, Caelum, Caelan/Caelen, Caelian, and the French Célian; feminine counterparts include Caelia and Célia. Variant spellings such as Kaelier appear, with nicknames like Cael or Eli.
