AI Overview
The name Kayleigh is primarily of Celtic origin, specifically Irish and Scottish Gaelic, and is a modern variant of names like Kayley or Kayla. It's often interpreted to mean "slender and fair" or "slim and beautiful," stemming from the Gaelic elements "caol" (slender) and "eigh" (fire/light). The name gained popularity in the 1980s, partly due to the song "Kayleigh" by the British band Marillion.
