Origin: British
Meaning: Pleasant wood
Anglo-Saxon in origin, Marly is a British gender-neutral name that means "pleasant wood." A variant of Marley, Marly no doubt inspires an easy, laid-back nature. Its roots in the Olde English myrig, meaning "pleasant," and lēah, "wood clearing" or "meadow," do little to quell Marly's down-to-earth appeal—an endearing appellation for a budding nature's child.
