Chelsae Origin and Meaning

The name Chelsae is a girl's name.

Chelsae is a feminine variant of Chelsea, which originally referred to a district in London, England derived from Old English terms meaning 'chalk landing place' or 'chalk wharf'. This alternative spelling maintains the same pronunciation while giving the name a unique touch. Chelsae emerged as a distinctive spelling variation primarily in the late 20th century when parents began seeking more personalized versions of popular names. While less common than the traditional Chelsea, which gained popularity in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s, Chelsae offers a more distinctive option while maintaining the name's graceful sound and associations with the fashionable London neighborhood.
