Zélie is a French short form of the name Azélie. Anglicized spellings and pronunciations of the name also in use include Zelie and Zellie. In some instances the name Zaylee and its spelling variants are intended as phonetic versions of Zélie.[1]
A connection to the French names Solange and Solenne, meaning solemn, via the short form Zéline, has also been suggested.[3]
It has also been considered a French form of the flower name Azalea. The French word for the flower is azalée.[4]
It has also been considered a form of the name Célie, a French version of the name Celia, likely derived from the Latincaelum meaning heaven.[5]
The name is also considered a variant of Zelia, which is a Basque variant of Celia or a feminine version of the Greek name Zelos, meaning intense zeal.[6]
