Leslie may mean Holly Garden in which case is would be something like Lioschuileann which fits with the oldest spelling of the name which was Lesslyn/Lescelin. Leslie can mean two things holly garden or from the grey fortress. From the meaning grey fortress we get the spelling Liosliath, or something close to that. It's still pronounced similarly.
