What does Allie mean?
Allie means “Meaning depends on the longer name”.
Allie is a short form used with names such as Alice, Alison, and Alexandra, and it can also stand independently. Those longer names have different roots: the Alice family is associated with nobility, while Alexandra belongs to a defender name family. Allie therefore does not have one combined meaning shared by every bearer.
Ally is a nearby spelling, though it also matches an English word that some readers pronounce differently. Parents choosing Allie to honor a relative can preserve the particular longer-name connection without requiring it on documents. The two-syllable full name is already easy to use, and its nickname appearance does not make it incomplete.
