Meaning & origin
Khiley is a modern American name that first appeared on the U.S. Social Security Administration's records in 2000. It saw its peak usage in 2010, when it was given to a small number of girls, and has since been on a declining trajectory. The name has never entered the top 1,000 rankings and has a very low frequency, with no recorded one-in-N births per million. Its top states are unknown, indicating the name is spread diffusely across the country. Khiley is likely a respelling of Kiley or an entirely invented name, fitting a modern trend of creative spellings. Its rarity makes it a distinctive choice for parents seeking a name that feels familiar yet unique.
Khiley first appeared in U.S. birth records in 2000, likely as a creative spelling of names like Kiley or Riley. It lacks a historical etymology and is considered a modern coinage, formed by combining the popular 'Kh-' initial and '-ley' suffix.
