English: habitational name from one or more places so named such as Great and Little Warley (Essex) Warley Salop and Warley Wigorn (Worcestershire) Warley (Yorkshire) Warleigh in Bathford (Somerset) and Warleigh House in Tamerton Foliot (Devon).

The Worcestershire placename may derive from a lost stream-name (of uncertain origin) or Old English weorf ‘cattle’ + lēah. The Yorkshire placename probably derives from the Old English personal name Wērlāf + Old English lēah. The Devon placename probably derives from Old English weard ‘watch’ + lēah. There may have been some confusion with Worley and Whaley.
