Presley

/ˈprɛzli/ proper noun

Definition

surname, most famously associated with Elvis Presley, American singer and cultural icon

Etymology

English surname, possibly from 'priest's meadow' (Old English preost + leah)

Kelly Says

Presley might mean 'priest's meadow,' which makes Elvis's transformation from sacred to secular music even more poetic. From holy ground to rock and roll royalty!
