Yaribely
The name I'm searching for is Yaribely. Feminine, Spanish, Caribbean, most likely Dominican Republic. Pronounced Yatti-Bailey. I've had no luck searching the internet other than one hit in NYC for someone with that name but totally unrelated.

This is probably a recently invented name. Parents in Latin America -- especially in the Caribbean countries like the Dominican Republic -- are fond of creating new names by blending syllables from other names, similarly to African-Americans in the USA. Yaribely looks like it's a blend of previously common names like Yaritza and Isabel, with -y added. Hispanic parents will often add -y to multiple syllable names, unlike English speaking parents. It's not unusual to see forms like Joanny in Hispanic or Brazilian cultures.

I've known several Brazilians with such names.Sometimes people here use -y as a replacement for -i or -ie. I know at least two girls named Nathaly.

Just a little bit of info to add to this: Googling around to find something about Yaribely I saw that there is the name Yaribel (without "y" at the end) as well, and seemingly dozens of times more popular than Yaribely.Jaribel exists as well, with a number of Google hits somewhere between Yaribely and Yaribel...
