Reily

Meaning of Reily

“Reily” is a modern twist on the storied Irish surname Ó Raghallaigh, a Gaelic clan name with warrior roots meaning “valiant” or “courageous.” Pronounced RAY-lee, this unisex gem bounces joyfully into playground chatter and boardroom introductions alike, like a kite caught in a gentle breeze. In the US it’s maintained a steady dance—hovering in the 700s and 800s on the popularity charts—familiar enough to avoid puzzled looks but rare enough to feel like a secret handshake. It carries the breezy spirit of an Anglo-American road trip: sunlit porches, impromptu beach picnics, and the sweet tang of fresh apple pie. Parents drawn to Reily love its river-tumbled charm and its promise of bold adventures yet to come. Like the first spark of a story you can’t wait to tell, Reily invites you to write the next chapter with a name that’s both timeless and utterly your own.
