Originating from Hawaiian culture, Maylei is a unique and enchanting feminine given name. Derived from the word 'maile,' which translates to 'to wreathe' or 'to intertwine,' this name holds deep symbolic significance. In Hawaiian tradition, maile leaves are used to create leis, sacred garlands worn during significant ceremonies and events. Thus, Maylei embodies a sense of reverence, beauty, and cultural heritage.
"Maylei saw a peak in popularity with 8 births each in 2002 and 2012. After an initial decline to 5 births in 2006, the name maintained steady usage with variations between 5 and 7 births annually until 2015. Over this period, a total of 51 babies were named Maylei."
