Hayes (given name)

Alright kiddo, so a name is something that we call a person by to identify them. "Hayes" is one of those names that some people have as their first name. Just like how some people are named "Emma" or "Noah". Names can come from many different things like family traditions or just because the parents liked the way it sounded. "Hayes" is a name that has been around for a while and it means "hedge" or "fence" in old English. So when someone is named Hayes, it means they have that as their special name.
