History & Origin
The name builds on Angela and Angel, both from the Greek 'angelos', a messenger and, in religious use, an angel. Angely adds a final '-y' to give the familiar root a softer, more contemporary turn. The angelic meaning carries straight through.
That trailing '-y' lightens the name and gives it a lilting close. The variant Angelly simply doubles the 'l' while keeping the same sound.
