Easly — Family Name, Records and Arms

Easly is one more way Easley has been written over the centuries. Name scholars give the meaning as “east clearing”. Without the “e” of Easley, Easly is a simpler written form of the same name. Census takers and immigration officers often wrote what they heard. The same family of names includes Eastley.

The 2010 US Census counted 226 people named Easly, ranking it number 83,226 among American surnames.

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Easly, so the heraldry linked to Easley is a starting point, not an automatic right. Get the complete Easly report, with a museum-style coat of arms.
