Stanly

Stanly is a masculine name and a respelling of Stanley without the e. As both a first and last name, Stanly derives from the Old English elements stān, meaning "stone," and lēah, meaning "clearing" or "meadow." Together, these elements translate to "stone clearing" or "stone meadow," perhaps reminding you of the joyous feeling of trudging through a rocky path or field. Every stone-crunching step brings you closer to your destination, from crystal waterfronts to vast woodland. When you and little Stanly embark on scenic walks or hikes, you'll hear this sound a lot, as they march their way toward your next stop.
