Pylee is in Origin.

Pylee is a rare modern given name in English-speaking use, most likely a creative blend shaped by the contemporary -lee/-leigh trend. It can be read as an anglicized spin on Greek Pylē (πύλη) “gate,” familiar from place names like Thermopylae, or as a softened variant of the surname Pyle, which arises from place-names (Welsh pîl “tidal inlet”) or Middle English pile “stake, pier.” As a first name, Pylee appears sporadically since the late 20th century and is used for all genders, often leaning feminine.

Variants and related forms include Pylie, Pyleigh, Pyli, Pylea, and the streamlined Pyle; it also echoes the sound family of Riley, Wylie, and Kylee. Depending on the chosen etymology, Pylee may carry the sense of “gate/threshold,” “stake/pillar,” or, by association with the element Lee, the pastoral note of “meadow.” Nicknames include Py, Pye, and Lee.
