I looked all over the web and couldn't find anything. I've looked for A free Given names translator or translations to translate the name Kelsey into Italian. If anyone knows any free sites to go to for A translation would be great. Thanx in advance!

Names are not being translated into other languages, but transliterated. Therefore you would not be able to find online translator for names. If the name is being written by using the same alphabet chances are that it would be written exactly as in origianl language. Sometimes names are slightly modified to reflect pronunciation and spelling differences of that language.

The thing is, the name "Kelsey" doesn't exist in the Italian culture, so you will never find a "translation" of it. If you want to spell it using Italian phonetics, you could write it as "Chelsi" (pronounced Kelsey still, I promise). That's as close to a name translation as you can get. ;)



PS: "Kelsey" is Old English for "victorious ship," or is possibly named after an island. You could look up Italian names that also mean the same thing, and that could be your translation.
