Rileigh

Rileigh is an American feminine name of Irish and English origin. It is derived from the surname O’Reilly, an Anglicized form of Ó Raghailligh, which translates to “descendant of Raghallach.” Though its etymology is uncertain, one theory suggests Raghallach comes from two Irish terms, signifying “veiled race.” In Old English, the last name Riley comes from rye and leah, meaning “rye clearing,” and was used to denote someone who lived near a rye field. The surname O’Reilly has given rise to many beautiful first names, including Riley, Rylee, and, of course, Rileigh, offering a range of charming choices for naming baby.
