Marylie is English in Origin.
Marylie is a modern blended given name linking Mary with the element Lee/Leigh, respelled with a French-influenced -ie ending. Mary comes from Hebrew Miryam, a name of uncertain meaning - often interpreted as "beloved," "wished-for child," "rebellion," or, by medieval folk etymology via Latin, "star of the sea." Lee/Leigh derives from Old English leah, "clearing, meadow." Together, Marylie can be read as "Mary of the meadow" or "beloved in the meadow," pairing a sacred classic with a nature note.
Compound Mary+Lee forms rose in the United States in the mid-20th century (Marilee, Mary Lee, Marylee), while the -ie spelling suggests occasional use in Francophone settings such as Quebec. The name remains rare but familiar through its parts. Variants and related forms include Marilee, Marylee, Mary-Lee, Mary Leigh, Marilie, Maryli, Marily, Maryly, and Marylia; diminutives may be Mari or Lili.
