Chelse is a feminine name that emerged as a shortened variation of Chelsea, which was originally an English place name meaning 'landing place for chalk or limestone' from Old English. As a given name, Chelse has a modern, streamlined feel compared to its parent name. While less common than Chelsea, which gained popularity in the 1980s and 1990s, Chelse offers a distinctive alternative with the same soft, appealing sound. The name carries connotations of sophistication and elegance, possibly influenced by the upscale Chelsea district in London. Chelse combines brevity with feminine charm, making it a subtle choice for parents seeking a contemporary name with historical roots.

Predominantly given to boys (in small numbers), it has very occasionally ranked for girls too.
