Annleigh is a modern coinage that first appeared on official U.S. records in 2009. By 2025, it ranked at 10,917 with a 1-in-200,908 rate, marking it as an exceedingly rare choice. The name saw its peak usage in 2015, though it has enjoyed a resurgence since 2022, reflecting the ongoing appeal of 'leigh' suffixed names. Annleigh draws on the well-established names Ann and Leigh, creating a fresh yet familiar sound. Unlike many trend-driven names, Annleigh has not been concentrated in any particular state, suggesting a widespread but very infrequent use across the country.
Annleigh is a contemporary compound name formed from Ann, the English form of Hannah (meaning 'grace' in Hebrew), and Leigh, an English surname derived from Old English 'leah' meaning 'woodland clearing' or 'meadow.' The name first appears in U.S. records in 2009, reflecting the trend of blending established names to create distinctive feminine-sounding choices.
