Mahalee

Mahalee is a typically feminine spelling of Mahali. Though this moniker may translate to “weak” or “sick” from the Hebrew Mahli, those definitions don’t reflect the joy and fulfillment baby will bring. Mahalee could also be related to mahal, an Old German element meaning “assembly” or “meeting.” You and your new arrival will have lots of those in their first weeks and months! Every time you and little Mahalee listen to music, you’ll be reminded of their name’s other Hebrew definition, “lyre.”
