History and Origin
English (esp. U.S.): transferred use of the surname, which originated as a local name for someone who lived by a patch of fallow land, from Middle English lay, ley fallow (Old English lǣge) + land land (Old English land). The surname is not a particularly common or famous one, and it is not clear why it should have been adopted as a given name. In America it is the name of a town in Mississippi, and it was also the surname borne by the humorous writer Charles Leland (1824–1903), author of The Breitmann Ballads.
