Like a lotus rising through monsoon mist, Caileigh feels rooted in folklore yet brimming with modern spark. Parents pick her when they want a name that flows like rain and shines like a diya at dusk. In the US, her popularity has hovered around the top 900 names, making her a rare gem with room to grow. Welcome, Caileigh—may she carry grace, laughter, and a little mischief wherever she goes.
