    Name Meaning

    English: habitational name from East Hatley (Cambridgeshire), Hatley Saint George (Cambridgeshire), or Hatley Cockayne (Bedfordshire). The placenames probably derive either from an Old English personal name Hætta or an earlier placename Hætte (from Old English hætt ‘hat, hat-shaped hill’) + Old English lēah ‘woodland clearing’. Compare Hatt 2.
