A surname style choice that might appeal as a way to honor a Nicholas or a Colin, Colley could also work as a rare alternative to Colton, Colby, Callum, and Corey. 
 
The name has a number of possible origins which include: the Irish Kelly meaning "bright-headed" or "war-strife"; the Scottish Macaulay meaning "son of righteousness"; the classic given name, Nicholas meaning "people of victory"; the Old Norse Koli meaning "black, dark, coal"; the bird name, Colly, referring to a blackbird; or possibly as a combination of the Norse word and the suffix ley, giving it the meaning "dark clearing". 
 
Some may find the sound a little too close to that of the dog breed (Border Collie), but spelling variation Coley could lead to the KO-lee pronunciation instead.
