Derived from the Irish surname 'Casey', which is an Anglicisation of the Gaelic 'Ó Cathasaigh', meaning 'descendant of Cathasach', with 'Cathasach' translating to 'vigilant' or 'watchful'. The combination with 'Shae' appears to be a modern, phonetic variation possibly inspired by the Gaelic 'Seán' or the Irish surname 'Shannon'. While 'Casey' originates from Irish Gaelic roots, 'shae' is a contemporary invented suffix common in English-speaking countries, including Australia, often used to create unique or personalised names.
