    Slohairt, thank you for all of your efforts in this thread. My daughter has married a young man named Henley. Any thoughts on Henley?

    Many thanks

    My guess would be English topographical origin. The last part ley is Anglo-Saxon for field or meadow. Hanley, however, is a different matter, it is usually derived from the Irish Ó hAinle.
