<p>Kelcey is a feminine name that originated as a variant spelling of Kelsey, which began as an English surname derived from place names combining the Old English elements 'ceol' (ship, keel) and 'eg' (island). The distinctive spelling with a 'c' instead of an 's' emerged in the late 20th century as parents sought more unique variations of popular names. Kelcey gained modest popularity in the United States during the 1980s and 1990s, when surnames as first names were becoming fashionable. While the more traditional spelling Kelsey ranked significantly higher on popularity charts, Kelcey offered a way to stand out while maintaining the same pleasant sound. Today, Kelcey remains an uncommon choice with a contemporary feel and unisex potential, though it's more frequently given to girls.</p>
