Meaning & origin
Addaleigh is a modern invented name that first entered U.S. birth records in 2011, part of a wave of -leigh names. Its peak year was 2016, after which it has been steadily declining, reflecting a broader shift away from invented elaborations. In 2025, it ranked 13,208 with an estimated incidence of 1 in 267,878 births, placing it among the rarer choices. The name combines a nod to classic Ada or Addie with the meadowy suffix -leigh, but it has not achieved widespread usage and remains a distinctive, contemporary pick.
Addaleigh is a modern coinage, emerging in the 21st century as part of the trend for names ending in -leigh (a variant of -ley, from Old English lēah 'woodland clearing, meadow'). The first element may derive from Ada (meaning 'noble' in Germanic) or the nickname Addie (often from Adelaide or Adeline). The name first appeared in U.S. records in 2011 and saw a brief rise before declining.
