Brexley Origin and Meaning

The name Brexley is a girl's name meaning "box tree clearing; brook clearing; speckled clearing".

This last-name style choice has a similar feel to the likes of Blakeley, Brooklyn and Bexley, and includes that on-trend letter X. While the exact meaning of the first element is unknown, possibilities include that it is a variation off bex meaning "box tree", brecc meaning "speckled", or perhaps of brooks referring to a small stream. It joined the US stats in 2015 and peaked in 2021 when it was given to 79 girls.

In the UK, this is probably too reminiscent of Brexit to catch on.
