Meaning & origin

Aislee is a modern, rare given name in the United States, first recorded in 2004. It is predominantly used for girls, and in the latest year (2025) it ranked 13,208th, with approximately 1 in 267,878 newborn girls receiving the name. Its popularity peaked in 2018, and since 2017 it has been on a declining trajectory. The name has not appeared among the top states or regional rankings, suggesting a very scattered, low-frequency use. Aislee likely emerged as a variant of the more established Ainsley or Aisling, combining the fashionable '-lee' suffix with a familiar sound pattern. It remains a highly uncommon choice, appealing to parents seeking a distinctive name with a gentle, feminine sound.

Aislee is a modern coinage, likely derived from the Scottish surname Ainsley or the Irish name Aisling. Ainsley originates from a place name meaning 'one's own meadow', while Aisling means 'dream' or 'vision' in Irish. Aislee emerged in the United States in the 21st century, possibly as a creative respelling blending sounds from these sources.
