Though it might remind you of monikers like Cora and Corliss, there is more than one path to the feminine name Corlee's true origins. It may indeed be an invented creation, inspired by names that begin with Cor and the suffix -lee. Corlee could also be a respelling of Corley, an English and Irish last name that borrows its definitions from the Gaelic title Mac Thoirdhealbhaigh. Meaning "son of Toirdhealbhach" or "Thor-like," Corlee is empowering and majestic in every letter. Perhaps Corlee is an intertwining of corna and lēah, two Old English elements that translate to "crane clearing." With a name like this, your tiny tot can confidently strive for the highest of heights.
