Fair-haired hero or white meadow
Finleigh is a modern spelling variation of the Scottish and Irish name Finley. It combines the Gaelic elements 'fionn', meaning white or fair, with 'laogh', meaning warrior or hero, though the '-leigh' suffix often associates it with the Old English word for a meadow or clearing.
