History & Origin

Paisleyann is a modern American double name. Paisley comes from a Scottish town whose looms gave the world the paisley print; Ann descends from Hebrew Hannah, 'grace; favor'. The pairing is recent and the routes uncertain, which we note (said 'PAYZ-lee-an').

It appears only rarely for girls in the U.S., far behind plain Paisley. Rare, layered, and Southern-leaning.

Did you know? Paisley is a real town near Glasgow — its weavers made the swirling teardrop print so famous the pattern took the town's name. Paisleyann tacks classic Ann, 'grace', onto the end.
