I have a friend who named her newborn daughter Carlie, spelled this way. I think she made a good choice! Carlie is a very cute and quirky name for a girl :)
I find it hysterical how this spelling dropped from the charts, yet "Carlee" still remains.Carly, Carlie, Carlee. Carlee is the worst spelling!

This name has been used for boys on rare occasions, most likely as a diminutive of Carl. I actually kind of like it on a boy, although I think the spelling Carly or Carley looks more masculine. I would never really use it for a boy of course, because this name along with the aforementioned spellings are now regarded as feminine names. I don't like the name Carly for a girl. It sounds very youthful, but I do like the way the spelling Carlie looks. Maybe it could be a nickname for Charlotte or Caroline or even Carlotta :)

Love it. Prefer 'Carliey' though. Don't know why, it's just different.
