Westleigh is an uncommon yet distinctive given name of English origin, derived from Old English elements 'west' meaning 'west', and 'leah' signifying 'woodland clearing'. This name was likely borne by early settlers in the Westcountry region of England, particularly in places like Devon and Cornwall where Old English influence persists. Today, Westleigh remains a rare choice, perhaps favored by those seeking an unusual yet meaningful name with strong ties to Anglo-Saxon heritage.
