William "Willie" O'Neill was a Scottish football player who played for Celtic and Carlisle United as a full-back. O'Neill signed for Celtic in 1959, aged 18, and made his debut in the 1961 Scottish Cup Final replay against Dunfermline. Although O'Neill did not play in Celtic's victory in the 1967 European Cup Final, he was an important member of the first team squad, making 32 appearances in the 1966–67 season. O'Neill made many of those appearances during the first few months of the season, as Jim Craig had temporarily dropped out of the team due to his dentistry studies.

'Willy' is slang which refers to a male's reproductive organs. His penis, to say it bluntly.
So naming your child 'Willie/Willy' and any other spelling would cause that child to be teased. Especially in the States.
Go with Will/william or any other will name. For the child's sake. Don't name children after body parts or vulgar slang...
