Meaning: Of Heaven (or, Belonging to Heaven).The ancient Romans would have said: Kighly (to rhyme with Highly). In church Latin it'd probably be more like Cheely or Cheeligh.Are you sure it's used as a name? Seems very odd! Perhaps it's intended as a male version of Celia, or a thoroughly kre8iv spelling of Kelly. I'd be interested to know where you foundit.

Caelus means heaven, sky or space in latin.
Caeli is at the accusative case.Andria.

"caelum" is the word, and "caeli" is the genitive case.

Caelum means both "atmoshpere,sky" and "heaven".
Caelus is another word that only means "heaven".(i've checked on my dictionary)Andria.
