Meaning & origin

Leslieann is a modern compound name that combines the Scottish place-name Leslie with the classic Ann. First recorded in the U.S. Social Security data in 1962, the name saw its peak popularity in 1982, during a decade when hyphenated and compound names were fashionable. Since then, its usage has remained stable at very low numbers, typically fewer than 5 births per year. The name has not been consistently given in enough numbers to rank nationally, and no top states have recorded significant usage. Leslieann represents a specific moment in American naming trends, blending two traditional names into a distinct choice.

Leslieann is a modern compound name created by blending Leslie and Ann. Leslie is derived from a Scottish surname originating from a place name meaning 'garden of holly' in Gaelic. Ann is the English form of Hannah, from the Hebrew name Channah meaning 'grace' or 'favor'. The name Leslieann gained modest use in the United States beginning in the 1960s, with a peak in popularity in the 1980s.
