Chantilie is English, French in Origin.
Chantilie is a modern, rare feminine name, likely a creative variant of the French place-name Chantilly or an elaboration of Chantal/Chantelle. If connected to Chantal, the root is Occitan cantal, “stone, boulder,” giving the sense “stony place.” If linked to Chantilly, the name has no literal meaning but suggests elegance through its ties to the town renowned for lace and a grand château.
Usage appears chiefly in late‑20th and early‑21st‑century English-speaking records, with little presence in French registries, marking Chantilie as a boutique choice. Variants and relatives include Chantilly, Chantille, Chantili; Chantal, Chantelle, and Chantel; and the Sh- spellings Shantel/Shantelle. Parents often favor its lilting, airy sound; nicknames such as Chanti, Tilly, or Lili arise naturally, though any “musical” sense is associative rather than etymological.
Chantilie turns up in none of the birth registries or name datasets we cover. Most often that means a rare name, a regional or heritage one, or a recent coinage. By any reading, it's an exceptionally uncommon choice.
