Leigha

Leigha is a girl's name and a variant of Leah spelled in the style of Leigh. Though the moniker that inspired it has English roots, Leigha shares Leah's Hebrew meanings. Stemming from the Hebrew name Leʾa or the Akkadian word littu, Leigha holds definitions like "weary," "tired," and "cow," reminding your child that every living creature stops and takes a rest every once in a while! Like Leigh, Leigha may derive from leah, an Old English word that means "clearing," describing the beautiful pastures where cows and other farm animals can often be seen relaxing and soaking up the sun. While sweet Leigha might prefer to keep busy and be on the move during their earliest years, their name will represent the adorable yawns, closing eyes, and cuddle requests that will let you know they're ready for naptime.
