Haileigh

US Popularity Rank: 13937

Origin: British

Meaning: Hay meadow, hay clearing

Haileigh is a girl’s name of English origin. Coming from a combination of the Old English words heg and leah, Haileigh means “hay meadow” or “hay clearing.” Sometimes, when the leaves wilt and winter's cool sets hearths ablaze, it can be hard not to hunger after the summer heat, but Haileigh will be a warm reminder of sunny days to come. And while variants like Hayley and Hailey have certainly peaked throughout the past decade or so, the name Haileigh has a look that could be a cut above the classics!
