I am not familiar with the name Kjelling (and couldn't find it in my dictionary of Norwegian names), but it would probably be related to Kjell, meaning "helmet" or "sacrificial kid" ('kid' as in 'young goat'). "Sacrificial kid" was the original meaning.
"Kjelling" is actually very similar to an older Norwegian word "[geite-]killing", meaning just "young goat".
These meanings are old, it is not a meaning anyone would know today without looking them up. Today it is just a name; similar to how the English name "John" means "God is merciful", but that meaning is lost in the mists of time for most modern people.
