I’ve always found this name to be very fun, playful and young sounding. I just love the way it looks, sounds and the spelling. It was very popular in French speaking countries during the 2000s (along with Maëva) and it has lost popularity now. It makes me think of a pretty and funny nice girl, and reminds me of the French word “malicieuse”, which could be translated as “playful, funny”, in a cute and almost seductive way. ;) Really good name, j’aime beaucoup Maëlys.

I don't know who the heck that anonymous user is, but he/she is completely ignoring the fact that there is a diaeresis/umlaut (two-dotted accent) over the 'e', thus it is pronounced separately and there is no diphthong between the 'a' and the 'e'.
The masculine name MAËL is pronounced MAH-el. The feminine name MAËLLE is pronounced mah-EL, with greater emphasis on the second syllable. The variant MAËLYS is pronounced mah-el-EES.
