原My name is Carey and I was always told it was derived from the Welsh Caer which means castle (Cearleon etc.) and as a personal name essentially means "from the castle." I was also told that it is used in Wales as the equivalent of Charles or Carl or the Anglo-Saxon name Ceorl. If all that is true it seems that it was originally a male name and only in relatively recent times became a female name too.

2015年，在美国出生的23个男孩被命名为Carey。
原The name Carey was given to 23 boys born in the US in 2015.
原I was named after Castle Cary, I'm a girl, and I have always loved my name. It's different, can't be shortened, has never been turned into a nickname and is soft sounding so I think quite feminine.
原At first I didn't really like this name for a boy, although I love Carrie for a girl (none of the other spellings, though) but after a while its grown on me, and I think it can suit either gender, as long as it's spelled Carey or Cary for a boy :)

我只看到这部电影“超级8”后才知道这个名字。 Carey是金发碧眼的pyromaniac。
原I only became aware of this name after seeing the film 'Super 8'. Carey is the blond pyromaniac.
原The following are all males. Carey Blyton - English composer, nephew of Enid. Carey Harrison - English writer of novels and plays, son of the actor Rex Harrison, whose middle name was Carey. Carey Bell - musician - plays blues harmonica. Carey Eidel - American actor. (Benjamin's dad in The Lost World, Jurassic Park (2)). Carey Wilson - American film producer, performer (actor), and screenwriter. Carey Dodge - Canadian composer/guitarist. Carey Wilson - Canadian hockey player.
原I was born in 1948 and christened Carey after my grandfather. He was christened Carey in 1878! He used to tell me that he was named after his parents' employer - a Lord Carey - they were "in service". Lord Carey's estate was in the Bristol area, (which is not far from Castle Cary). (Cary is pronounced just the same as Carey, even though most English people pronounce Cary like Carrie.) I think it is pertinent that Cary Grant (not his real name) came from Bristol. I like to think he chose his stage name because he knew of Castle Cary. One of my colleagues at work has a "choose a name for your baby" book. In it the name Carey is described as a Celtic name which means "he who lives in a castle".
原I have never been able to corroborate the theory that the name Carey is of Irish origin. I have researched the ancestry of several Careys, and hav traced all of them to an Adam de Cari who was so named because he was the Lord of the Manor at a place that is now called Castle Cary, named so because the Castle was built at a village anciently named Cary or Cari (Celtic for rocky hill, according to the people at the Castle Carey museum).
Several descendants of Adam have been prominent in British history, including the husband of Mary Bolyn.
原This is one of my favorite male names. I would not use this or any variation of Carey on a girl, though. I hate it because it reminds me of Stephen King's book Carrie.

译 我的名字是凯莉，我总是被告知它是从威尔士凯尔的意思是城堡（Cearleon等），作为一个人的名字本质上意味着“从城堡。我也被告知，它在威尔士用作相当于查尔斯或卡尔或盎格鲁撒克逊名称Ceorl。如果这一切是真的，似乎它最初是一个男性的名字，只在最近的时代成为了一个女性的名字。

译 我出生于1948年，在我的祖父之后洗礼凯里。他在1878年洗礼了凯莉！他曾经告诉我，他以他父母的雇主 - 一个Lord Carey - 命名，他们“在役”。凯里阁下的遗产在布里斯托尔地区（距离卡里城不远）。 （Cary的发音与Carey相同，即使大多数英国人像Carrie一样发音Cary。）\u003cbr\u003e我认为Cary Grant（不是他的真名）来自布里斯托尔是相关的。我喜欢认为他选择了他的舞台名字，因为他知道Castle Cary。\u003cbr\u003e我在工作的一个同事有一个“为你的宝宝选择一个名字”的书。在它名字凯里被描述为凯尔特名字，意味着“他住在城堡”。
