History & Origin
Raelie is a modern American coinage in the busy Rae- family. Rae began as a short form of Rachel — from the Hebrew for 'ewe' — and became a building block for dozens of new names. The -lie ending here is soft and bright. No documented meaning attaches to the whole, and the routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'RAY-lee').
It appears only rarely in U.S. records. Rare, coined, and sweet.
