The form can also be read as a modern elaboration of Kelly/Kellie (Irish O Ceallaigh, from the personal name Ceallach, of debated meaning - commonly "war" or "bright-headed"). A parallel etymology aligns it with German Kellerman/Kellermann, from Middle High German keller "cellar" + mann, "cellarman, wine steward."

Depending on the lineage you embrace, the name carries senses of "man from the woods," "cellar master," or the Kelly-associated "descendant of Ceallach."
