Kylley is in Origin.

Kylley (KYE-lee) is a modern English given name, a creative respelling that bridges Kylie and Kelly/Kiley. It emerged in late 20th-century U.S. usage, part of the trend for -ley/-lee endings and personalized orthography. Its roots touch several streams: Kylie is often taken as the feminine form of Kyle, from Scottish Gaelic caol “narrow; strait,” and in Australia has also been linked to a Noongar term kiley/kylie meaning “boomerang.” Kelly descends from the Irish surname Ó Ceallaigh, from the personal name Ceallach, frequently interpreted as “war, strife” or possibly “bright-headed.”

Because Kylley layers these sources, its perceived meaning ranges from “narrow strait” to ideas of “warrior/striving,” with a soft, contemporary feel. Usage is rare but recognizable across English-speaking countries; it reads largely feminine today, though Kelly’s history keeps it technically unisex. Close variants include Kylie, Kylee, Kilee, Kiley, Kyly, Kelly, Kelley, Kellie, and Kelli.
