Ronnlei is in Origin.

Ronnlei is a rare modern English given name, most plausibly a creative variant of Ronley/Ronleigh built from the nickname Ron plus the place-name suffix -lei/-ley. The -ley element goes back to Old English leah, meaning "woodland clearing" or "meadow." Ron is the familiar short form of Ronald, from Old Norse Ragnvaldr "ruler's counsel," and it also echoes the Irish name Ronan, "little seal." Taken together, the name carries a blended sense of "Ron's meadow" or, more generally, an evocative "clearing/meadow" linked to the Ron- family of names.

In use, Ronnlei surfaces sporadically in late 20th- and 21st-century English-speaking records and functions as a unisex choice, with the -lei ending aligning with contemporary -lei/-leigh spellings. Variant forms include Ronley, Ronnley, Ronlei, Ronlee, Ronleigh, and Ronnleigh; related nicknames are Ron and Ronnie. Its rarity lends a tailored, modern feel while nodding to older English toponymic roots.
