A boy’s name of British origin, Radleigh means “meadow of reeds.” A varied spelling of the Old English name Radley, this title is steeped in history that can fill your new addition with interest and inspiration. Symbolic in Celtic mythology, the reed has a reputation for being protective—from thatched rooftops that shield from the elements to talismans to protect the wearer from evil. Baby Radleigh can channel this symbolism to find strength in his name, and may even see fit to become a protector of others around him.
