Haregrove is English in Origin.

Haregrove is an English toponymic name built from Old English hara “hare” and græfe/grāf “grove, thicket,” giving the meaning “grove of hares” or “hare wood.” It likely arose as a locative surname for someone living by a copse frequented by hares. The form aligns with long‑standing place‑derived surnames such as Hargrave and Hargreaves, themselves shaped by Middle English spellings (-grave/-greave/-greaves) that reflect regional pronunciation and scribal variation.

In use, Haregrove is scarcely found as a given name before the modern era, but it fits the contemporary English‑speaking fashion for surnames as first names. Variants and relatives include Hargrave, Haregrave, Hargrove, Hargreave, and Hargreaves. Nickname options might be Hare or Grove. With rustic, fleet‑footed imagery and a calm woodland feel, the name reads subtly masculine yet works well as a tailored, unisex choice.
