Sorry, but this information is at least incomplete. It makes no sense that "Arisleidy" is the plural of the Spanish word "moral". Where did you find this information? If there is any connection here, it must be that Arisleidy is from a place name which was originally from Basque or another language, not from Spanish.

You are absolutely right. The plural of the Spanish moral is morales. Moreover, in Spanish, the words ending in -i are highly inusual, especially with not stressed -i (and a big part of them are words from other languages, as Italian)Arisleidy is not a place name but simply a Hispanic made up name with leidy or leidi (and leidis, leydis...) used as a productive element (Yurisleidis, for instance); this "element" is a respelling of the English lady according to the Spanish phonetics rules (however, leidy is wrong because in Spanish the Y can't be a vowel). This kind of made up names is popular only in some countries, as Cuba, Colombia and Dominican Republic (and only among low educated people), and among Hispanic people in the USA.

Hi,
I have a friend named Arisleidy from the dominican republic who has been wondering what her name means her whole life but could never find it in the etymology dictionaries online. So what you're saying is that the name Arisleidy doesn't have a meaning? It was just made up completely? Jeremy
