Kenzie-Leigh

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Kenzie-Leigh: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2007.

Kenzie-Leigh is a modern Scottish double-barrelled name blending Kenzie with Leigh. Kenzie originated as a Scottish surname from the Gaelic *Mac Coinnich*, meaning "son of Coinneach" (handsome or comely), often shortened as a given name for both genders. Leigh derives from the Old English *leah*, meaning "woodland clearing." While no famous bearers combine both names, singer Kenzie (Kenzie Wheeler) and actress Leigh-Anne Pinnock show each half's popularity. The Mackenzie River in Canada shares the surname's root, named after explorer Sir Alexander Mackenzie. Double-barrelled names like Kenzie-Leigh have become especially common in Scotland since the 2000s, reflecting a trend for blending traditional surnames with softer endings, giving this name a friendly, outdoorsy feel.
