Zaley

US Popularity Rank: 22201

Origin: Modern

Meaning: Sea strength; Bright, shining

Zaley is a modern, gender-neutral title riding the wave of trendy “Z” names. Possibly a form of Zale, a supposed Greek name meaning “sea strength,” Zaley exudes elemental prowess. Zaley may also be the result of replacing the first letter of names like Haley, Bailey, Kailey, etc, with the letter “z” to give these classic favorites a little more zing. Taking it one step further, Zaley could be inspired by the Italian Zaleuco, which derives from the Greek Séleukos, meaning “bright” and “shining.”
