Name Origin

Harley-James is a modern, compound given name combining two traditionally distinct names. Harley, of English origin, originally referred to a 'hare's meadow' and evolved into a surname before becoming a popular masculine given name in the 20th century. James, of Hebrew origin, means 'supplanter' or 'one who follows'. Combining these creates a unique name suggesting nature (Harley) and tradition/strength (James).
