"Blend of Mae and ley"
The name Maeley is commonly a female name from the "English" origin.
Maeley is a modern American formation built from the given name Mae plus the -ley ending, the element that comes from the Old English word for a wood or clearing and that appears in English surname-derived names such as Hayley and Ashley. The spelling is not recorded in United States birth records before 2003, which fits a recent formation rather than an inherited name.
The pronunciation of Maeley is MAY-lee.
