Leyland

US Popularity Rank: 14845

Origin: British

Meaning: One who lives by unseeded land

Leyland is a rather rare boy’s name. Meaning “one who lived by unseeded land,” this name has Old English origins, deriving from the name Leland. It is also unique because it is what is called a toponymic name, or a name that references a place or geographic feature. In this case, Leyland may reference a place not yet touched by human hands or used for farming. This is a lovely idea that is sure to inspire! Little Ley can feel free to grow with wild abandon and become exactly who they want to be.
