Leyland is a masculine name of English origin, derived from an Old English place name meaning 'untilled land' or 'fallow land.' Composed of the elements 'læge' (fallow) and 'land' (land), it was historically used as a surname before transitioning to first-name usage. The name carries connotations of openness, potential, and natural beauty. Leyland gained recognition through its association with the British automotive industry, as Leyland Motors was a prominent vehicle manufacturer. As a first name, it remains relatively uncommon, appealing to parents seeking a distinctive English name with a sophisticated sound. Its 'ley' element connects it to other place-based names like Ashley and Bradley, while offering a less common alternative.
