Sallee Origin and Meaning

The name Sallee is a girl's name.

Sallee is a feminine name that originated as a variant spelling of Sally, which itself began as a diminutive of Sarah (meaning 'princess' in Hebrew). This distinctive spelling gives the familiar name a more elaborate, vintage feel while maintaining the friendly, approachable sound. Sallee had brief popularity in the United States during the mid-20th century but remains uncommon today. The name carries the same warm, cheerful associations as Sally while offering a more unique presentation. The double 'e' ending creates a visual distinction that appeals to parents seeking a traditional name with a slight twist. Sallee combines classic appeal with subtle uniqueness, suitable for those drawn to vintage names with refreshed spellings.
