Avonlea
English origin
“Avonlea combines Avon (possibly referencing the English river or the place in Canadian literature) with the suffix -lea, meaning 'clearing' or 'meadow.' The name gained literary prestige through L.M. Montgomery's 'Anne of Green Gables' series set in Avonlea, Prince Edward Island. It evokes pastoral beauty, imagination, and nostalgic charm.”
