atlee
|at-lee|
/ˈætli/
dweller at the meadow
Etymology
'Atlee' originates from Old English, specifically the elements 'at' + 'leah', where 'at' meant 'at' and 'leah' meant 'clearing' or 'meadow'.
'Atlee' changed from the Old English phrase 'æt leah' (literally 'at the clearing') and eventually became the hereditary surname 'Atlee' in modern English.
Initially it meant 'dweller at the clearing or meadow', but over time it evolved into a hereditary family name without necessarily referring to an actual location.
