Camberly is English in Origin.

Camberly is a modern English given name, probably a creative blend drawing on camber - the English word for an arch or convex curve (via Old French cambre, from Latin camur/camurus) - and the popular -ley/-ly ending familiar from surnames and place names meaning “meadow/clearing.” It may also be influenced by the Surrey town name Camberley. Taken together, Camberly can be read evocatively as “curved” or, by place-name analogy, “meadow by the curve.”

In use, Camberly is a rare contemporary choice that surfaces in English-speaking countries from the late 20th century onward, aligning with the rise of surname-style and -ber/-ly names (Kimberly, Amberly). Spelling variants include Camberley, Camberlie, Camberleigh, and Camberlee; short forms Cam, Cami/Cammie, and Berry sometimes appear. While most often given to girls, its structure makes it potentially unisex. The name carries a sleek, modern feel with subtle natural imagery.
