Chesleigh
Meaning of Chesleigh
Chesleigh is a unisex given name of Anglo-Saxon provenance, etymologically composed from the Old English elements ceosol, meaning “gravel,” and lēah, denoting a “woodland clearing,” which together originally described a topographical feature. As a modern appellation, it retains a technical quality—both in its morphological transparency and in its phonetic economy—while its usage data in the United States indicate a consistently rare adoption, occupying ranks between 948 and 963 with occurrences ranging from five to ten newborns per annum between 2010 and 2020. Pronounced CHEZ-lee (/tʃɛzli/), Chesleigh appeals to those seeking a gender-neutral name with historical depth, linguistic precision, and understated distinction.
