Shailie is a modern feminine given name with multiple cross‑cultural roots. In English-speaking contexts it is often treated as a blended form of Shea (from Irish Ó Séaghdha, commonly interpreted as “admirable”) and Lee (“meadow”), giving readings like “Shea’s meadow.” It also aligns with the modern Hebrew compound Shai + li, meaning “my gift,” and with the South Asian name Shaili/Shaily, from Sanskrit śailī, “style, manner.” Accordingly, its sense varies by tradition: “my gift,” “style,” or a surname–meadow blend.

The spelling Shailie is uncommon, gaining modest visibility in North America from the late 20th century amid the wave of -lee/-lie names and creative respellings and remains rare in official statistics. Alternate spellings are more prevalent. Variants include Shaylee, Shaylie, Shailey, Shaily, Shaili, and Shayli; related forms include Shayla and Sheila. Usage appears in the United States and Canada, while Shaili/Shaily is well established in India and Shayli in Israel.
