Meadow of the forest or meadow of the spear
Jesley is a modern blend likely derived from the English elements 'leah' (meadow) combined with prefixes like Jesse or Jes-. It may also be interpreted as a variation of Lesley, which comes from a Scottish place name meaning 'garden of hollies' or 'meadow of the spear'.
