Pure; sea and sky
Kaylanii is a modern American elaboration of the name Kaylani, which blends the Greek-derived 'Kay' (meaning pure) with the Hawaiian 'Lani' (meaning sky or heavens). The double-i spelling is a contemporary stylistic choice intended to make the name feel more unique and visually distinct. It carries a breezy, tropical energy while maintaining a connection to traditional roots.
