Leighlani is a modern English–Hawaiian blend, combining Leigh - an English given name and surname from Old English leah, “meadow, clearing” - with the Hawaiian lani, “heaven, sky; royal.” The form also echoes Leilani (lei, “flower garland,” + lani), so many treat Leighlani as a stylized respelling of that Polynesian classic rather than a strict compound. Usage skews feminine, though the Leigh element is historically unisex in English.

Documented mainly in the United States since the early 2000s, it fits the trend for inventive spellings and island-inspired names while remaining uncommon compared with Leilani. Variants and cognates include Leilani, Lehlani, Leihlani, Lailani, and Leilany; nicknames include Leigh, Lei, and Lani. Meaning is typically taken as “heavenly garland/royal child,” though a blended reading yields “heavenly meadow,” reflecting its dual roots.
