Karmellyah is in Origin.

Karmellyah is a modern elaboration of Carmel/Carmella, substituting the K- for C- and adding the -yah ending often influenced by Hebrew theophoric forms. Carmel comes from Hebrew Karmel, "vineyard, orchard, fruitful field," the name of Mount Carmel in Israel and a long-standing Marian place-name. With the -yah element (a poetic short form of the divine name), Karmellyah is sometimes read as "Yah's orchard" or "garden of God," though it can also be understood simply as a melodic extension of Carmel.

Use of Carmel, Carmela, and Carmella spread through medieval Christian Europe via devotion to Our Lady of Mount Carmel and the Carmelite Order, later anglicized and Italian/Spanish variants flourishing in the 19th-20th centuries. Contemporary variants and spellings include Karmella, Carmella, Carmelia, Karmelia, Carmelya/Karmelya, Carmeliah/Karmeliah, and Karmeliyah; diminutives may be Karmi, Mella, Mel, or Ella.
