English: habitational name from Staveley in Derbyshire, Stayley in Lancashire (now called Stalybridge in Greater Manchester), or perhaps Staveley (Westmorland), Staveley (Lancashire), or Staveley (Yorkshire). The placenames all derive from Old English stæf ‘staff, stave, rod’ (genitive plural stafa) + lēah ‘woodland clearing’. Compare Staveley .
