Joeley is in Origin.
Joeley is a modern English given name, most often pronounced JO-lee. It likely arose as an alternative spelling of Joely, a contemporary blend formed either from Joel with the affectionate -y ending or under the influence of the French word/name Jolie. As a given name it appears sporadically in late-20th- and early-21st-century records in the UK and United States, remaining rare; the more common spelling Joely is associated with actresses Joely Richardson and Joely Fisher, which helped bring the sound into public ear.
Because Joeley straddles several sources, its meaning can be read in different ways: from Hebrew Joel (Yo’el), “Yahweh is God”; from Joseph, “he will add/increase” (via Jo/Joey); or from French jolie, “pretty.” Variant spellings include Joely, Joley, Jolie, Jolee, Joleigh, and Joelie. Nicknames range from Jo and Joey to Lee/Leigh, giving the name a flexible, gently modern feel.
