Arlee Origin and Meaning

The name Arlee is a girl's name.

Arlee is a modern unisex name that has been more commonly given to girls in recent decades. It may have evolved as a variant of Arlie or Harley, or possibly as a creative spelling of the surname Harley. Some sources suggest it could be derived from the Old English words meaning 'eagle wood' or 'meadow of the hare.' Arlee has a contemporary sound with its trendy 'lee' ending while maintaining a connection to nature-inspired naming traditions. The name remains relatively uncommon, appealing to parents seeking something distinctive yet accessible in pronunciation. Its short, melodic quality makes it appealing as a modern choice that works well across different cultural contexts.
