Meaning: Meadow of coarse grass

Bentleigh is a girl’s name of English origin. It’s a variant of Bentley, a surname meaning “meadow of coarse grass.” Bentley is sometimes used as a first name for boys, and is most commonly associated with the luxury car brand. However, its meaning evokes picturesque images of the tranquil British countryside. Either way, it has a distinctly elegant English feel to it. This variant uses the popular suffix “-leigh,” possibly inspired by fashionable names such as Everleigh, Charleigh, Marleigh, and others.
