1. Meaning of the name "Hailey"

Hailey is the most common spelling variant of From Haley, which is the use of an English surname derived from a place name. For example, there is a village called Hailey in Oxfordshire, a county in southeastern England.

The place name comes from the Old English words of the English language, hhg (meaning good or grass, grass) and turban (meaning an empty land, pasture).

Surnames that developed from specific places were often given to the lord of the manor, the largest landowner and/or people who hailed from one village and relocated to another (a surname derived from one’s place of origin would have served to identify them for the purposes of taxation).

The first recorded spelling of this surname appeared in the mid-13th century and was rendered as “de Hayleg”. The transference of Haley from a surname into a female given name is really quite modern and very distinct to the United States and Canada (i.e., other English-speaking countries aren’t as hot on the Hailey names).

The given form of the name really caught on in the United States by the mid-1980’s when Halley’s Comet came through the earth’s atmosphere in 1986 (this rare event visible to the naked eye only happens once every 75 years!).

Over 3,000 baby girls were named some form of Haley in 1986 which is right around the time she became a modern-day American favorite. Today, more than 10,000 girls receive this nickname in the United States every year.
