Kalea is a Hawaiian name meaning "joy" or "bright." From the Hawaiian root lea (joy, gladness).
Kalea is rising in the U.S. and widely used in Hawaii.
Kalea does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.

In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Kalea reduce to 3, The Communicator. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
