Question

How is my name spelt in Cantonese and how is it pronounced ? My name is Kaliegh. Thank you  :)

Answer

嘉莉 is common name in Hong Kong, it's is a girlish name, and near pronunciation to your name.  佳理 is nice, though it sounds boyish.

For pronunciation, please look up this audio dictionary (character encoding need to set to big5):

Answer

My suggestions (I had to look up the cantonese pronunciations, but I believe they are correct): 
『嘉理』(mandarin: jiā lǐ ;  cantonese: gā léih)
or 
『佳理』(mandarin: jiā lǐ ;  cantonese: gāai léih)

嘉 as in excellent; praise
佳 as in fine; beautiful 
理 as in reason; logic; truth

Personally, I like 『佳理』 :D

What do ya think?

But whatever you do, don't use  咖哩，because that is the same characters they use for 'curry'.  :P
