Cyhillas field or wood
Derived from an English place name in West Yorkshire, Keighley likely stems from the Old English personal name Cyhilla combined with 'leah', meaning a clearing, field, or meadow. While the town is famously pronounced 'KEETH-lee', the name is more commonly used as a given name with a phonetic spelling-based pronunciation.
