These are Hispanic names. Yareli, like Yaritza, is probably an elaboration of Yara, a name which is said to go back to the Tupi (Native American) word for "lady" and which has been used in Spanish speaking countries of the Caribbean for many years. The origin of Yuridia is more obscure but it may also well be a recently creation. Names starting with the letter Y are now particularly popular with Hispanic Americans who like to create new names.

To me this sounds like African-Cuban or African-Brazilian names. People of African origin in these countries often make up names of elements they find beautiful, so I don't think these names have specific meanings.
