History & Origin
Ronalee looks like a mid-century American blend, joining a Rona or Ronald element to the fashionable suffix Lee. Ronald descends from an Old Norse name meaning 'ruler's counsel', giving a faint older thread beneath the coinage, which we note. A girl named Ronalee near its faint peak in the early nineteen-sixties is in her sixties today.
It never spread widely, staying a rare, homemade name of the -lee era. Its story is in the pieces it fused rather than a single old word.
