LeeAnn as a Baby Name. Meaning and Origin of LeeAnn

What is the meaning of the name LeeAnn ?

The baby name LeeAnn is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced LEE-ANN (IPA: /ˈliːæn/).

LeeAnn is English in Origin.

LeeAnn is a modern English compound feminine name joining Lee and Ann/Anne. Lee stems from Old English leah, meaning “clearing” or “meadow,” and Ann/Anne comes from Hebrew Hannah via Latin and French, meaning “grace” or “favor.” As a blend, LeeAnn conveys the sense of a “graceful meadow.” The internal capitalization reflects American double-name styling.

Usage expanded in North America from the mid-20th century and peaked in the 1960s-1980s; country-pop visibility, notably LeAnn Rimes, kept it familiar into the late 1990s. Variants include Leann, LeAnne, Lee Ann, Lee-Ann, and Leanne (common in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand). With Leigh instead of Lee (Leigh Ann or Leigh-Anne), the meaning remains the same. Related forms Liane and Lianne often overlap in use, though they may also reflect French lineages distinct from the Lee + Anne blend.
