Beaconsfield (W3)

Der Name des Ortes "Beaconsfield" auf halber Strecke zwischen London und Oxford, geht auf ein "Buchenwäldchen", engl. "Buchenfeld", engl. "field by the beacon" zurück und wurde also auf einer Lichtung zwischen Buchen gegründet.

Später wurde es englischen Grafen als Titel verliehen "..., Earl of Beaconsfield" und fand über die Namensträger den Weg nach Kanada, USA, Südafrika und Australien, wo ebenfalls Orte mit dem Namen "Beaconsfield" gegründet wurden.

The first written reference to "Beaconsfield" dates from 1185 where it is spelt "Bekenesfeld", although this is mistakenly thought to mean the "field by the beacon" actually is derived from "clearing in the beeches" ("beech trees"). The town's icon is an oak tree.

Devizes (W3)

Der Name des Ortes "Devizes" geht zurück auf die Lage der ursprünglichen Burg auf den Grenzen der Landgüter Rowde, Bishops Canning und Potterne. Diese wurde deshalb auch "castrum ad divisas" = dt. "die Burg auf den Grenzen" genannt. Daraus leitet sich der "Devizes" ab.

H. W. BAILEY.
The latest post by the estimable Conrad, along with the ensuing comment thread, prompts me to share with you all the remarkable life of H. W. Bailey. The Wikipedia entry is a good start:

Bailey was born in "Devizes", Wiltshire, and raised from age 10 onwards on a farm in western Australia without formal education. While growing up, he learned German, Italian, Spanish, Latin, and Greek from household books, and Russian from a neighbor. After he grew interested in the lettering on tea-chests from India, he acquired a book of Bible selections translated into languages with non-European scripts, including Tamil, Arabic, and Japanese. By the time he had left home, he was reading Avestan as well....

Devizes ist ein Markt- und Kreisstadt in der englischen Grafschaft Wiltshire im Süden Großbritanniens, etwa 150 km westlich von London. Die Stadt hat etwa 11.000 Einwohner auf einer Fläche von 573 ha.
...
Im Jahre 1080 wird Devizes zum ersten Mal erwähnt, als der später heilig gesprochene Osmund von Sées, Bischof von Salisbury dort eine Burg errichtete. Da zu jener Zeit noch keine Stadt vorhanden war, wird der Ort auch nicht im Domesday Book erwähnt. Weil die Burg auf den Grenzen der Landgüter Rowde, Bishops Canning und Potterne stand, war sie auch als „castrum ad divisas“ oder „die Burg auf den Grenzen“ bekannt. Daher stammt der Name „Devizes“.

England (W3)

Die Bezeichnung "England" geht zurück auf "the land of the Angles", "Angelnland".

(E?)(L?) http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=England
(E?)(L?) http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/England

...
The name "England" is derived from the Old English word "Englaland", which means "land of the Angles". The Angles were one of the Germanic tribes that settled in England during the Early Middle Ages. The "Angles" came from the Angeln peninsula in the Bay of Kiel area of the Baltic Sea. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the first known use of "England" to refer to the southern part of the island of Great Britain occurs in 897, and its modern spelling was first used in 1538.

The earliest attested mention of the name occurs in the 1st century work by Tacitus, Germania, in which the Latin word "Anglii" is used. The etymology of the tribal name itself is disputed by scholars; it has been suggested that it derives from the shape of the "Angeln peninsula", an angular shape. How and why a term derived from the name of a tribe which was less significant than others, such as the Saxons, came to be used for the entire country and its people is not known, but it seems this is related to the custom of calling the Germanic people in Britain "Angli Saxones" or "English Saxons".

An alternative name for "England" is "Albion". The name "Albion" originally referred to the entire island of Great Britain. The earliest record of the name appears in the Aristotelian Corpus, specifically the 4th century BC De Mundo: "Beyond the Pillars of Hercules is the ocean that flows round the earth. In it are two very large islands called "Britannia"; these are "Albion" and "Ierne". The word "Albion" or "insula Albionum" has two possible origins. It either derives from the Latin "albus" meaning "white", a reference to the white cliffs of Dover, which is the first view of Britain from the European Continent. An alternative origin is suggested by the ancient merchant's handbook Massaliote Periplus which mentions an "island of the Albiones". "Albion" is now applied to England in a more poetic capacity. Another romantic name for "England" is "Loegria", related to the Welsh "Lloegr", which is derived from Arthurian legend.

Geordies (W3)

"Geordies" ist die Bezeichnung der Einwohner von Newcastle und Gateshead nördlich und südlich des Flußes Tyne. In der Jacobitischen Revolution im Jahr 1745 waren sie die einzigen im Norden Englands (Northumbria), die Partei für König "Georg" II. ergriffen, was ihnen den Namen einbrachte.

Sie unterstützten auch schon King George I., einen deutschen Protestanten, der 1714 den englischen Thron bestieg. Man vermutet, dass sie seither den Nicknamen tragen.

Newcastle English ("Geordie")
written by Geoff Smith
This page includes information on: ...
The word "Geordie" is said to date from the early 18th century, when Newcastle people declared support for the English kings "George" I and II, in opposition to the rest of the population of Northumberland, who supported the Scottish Jacobite rebellions. Although the name is localised to the Newcastle area, the dialect here merges gradually into the Northumbrian and Scottish dialects to the north and to a lesser extent into Durham and Yorkshire varieties to the south. The variety described here includes that of the region immediately surrounding the city of Newcastle and the villages of East Northumberland to the north that I am more familiar with. These villages, until recently depending largely on the coal industry, are home to many of the broader dialect speakers.

Gloucester (W3)

Der Name der Stadt "Gloucester" (gegründet 96-98), altengl. "Gleawceaster", abgekürzt "Glo'ster", der Hauptstadt der County (Grafschaft) Gloucestershire, könnte auf lat. "Claudia Castra" = "Militärlager des Claudius" zurück gehen.

Diese Deutung geht auf Geoffrey of Monmouth zurück. Er berichtet, daß Arviragus die Tochter Genuissa von Claudius Cæsar heiratete und ihn davon überzeugte, eine Stadt an dem Ort zu gründen, an dem die Hochzeit gefeiert wurde. Die Stadt soll dann "Caer-Claud" genannt worden sein, das zu "Caer-Clau" verkürzt und zu "Caer-glou" abgeschliffen worden sein. Die Römer machten daraus dann "Glou-caster", die Sachsen "Glou-ceaster", "Glou-cester".

Geoffrey of Monmouth weist auch darauf hin, dass einige Zeitgenossen den Namen "Gloucester" auf einen Sohnn von Claudius, den "Duke Gloius", zurück führen, der an dem Ort geboren worden sein soll.

Der überwiegende Teil der Hinweise führt den ersten Teil von "Gloucester" allerdings zurück auf eine alte Bezeichnung lat. "Coloniae Glev", "colonia of Glezum", und kelt. "Glevo", "Gleva" mit der Bedeutung engl. "bright place" = dt. "günstiger, leuchtender Ort, "Leuchtende Burg", zurück (altengl. "gleaw" = engl. "wise", "prudent"), Welsh "Glo", verwandt mit engl. "coal" (Coal is mined in 60 collieries in Gloucestershire), dt. "Kohle", air. "gúal", ide. "*geu-lo-".

Die alten Briten nannten die Stadt "Caer Glou" = "bright city". Die Römer latinisierten den Namen zu "Glou", "Glove", "Glevum", und machten es zur "colonia glevum". Die Sachsen nannten die Stadt "Glou ceaster" (etwa "Glou-Kastel"), in Referenz zur römischen Siedlung.

Man findet auch noch die Namensangaben:

"Car Glow", "Caer Glow", "Gleawecastre", "Gleucestre", "Colonia Nervia Glevensium", "Glevum", "Glowancestre", 1282, from the Anglo-Saxon for "fort" (Old English "ceaster") preceded by the Roman stem "Glev-" (pronounced "glaiw"). In Old Welsh, the city was known as "Caerloyw", "caer" = "castle", and "loyw" from "gloyw" = "glowing", "bright".

Die Endung altengl. "ceaster" für "Burg" findet man auch in engl. "castle", in deutschen Ortsnamen auf "-kastel", dt. "Kassel", span. "castillo" ("Kastillien"), arab. "al-qasr", span. "alcázar", engl. "Chester", engl. "Caistor" (Lincolnshire), "Chichester", "Cirencester", "Colchester", "Doncaster", "Exeter" ("Exchester"), "Gloucester", "Lancaster", "Leicester", "Manchester", "Ribchester", "Towcester".

"Gloucester" findet man auch als Familiennamen, als Käsenamen, als Name einer Rinderrasse, als Straßenname und U-Bahn-Station in London ("Gloucester Road"), als Bezeichnung für eine Schriftfamilie.

Great Malvern (town), Worcestershire (W3)

"Malvern" geht vermutlich zurück auf brit. "moel" = "kahl", auch "Berg" & "wern" = "Erlen", was also zusammen "erlenbewachsen(er Hügel)" ergibt. (Wenn die Spitze "kahl" ist, müssen die "Erlen" also am Fuß des Hügels stehen.)

Eine andere Variante ist die Rückführung auf ein altes "moel-bryn" = "the bare hill" = "Kahler berg".

"Hexham", in Northumberland, England, receives its name from the stream "Hextold"; its old name, "Hagustald", came from another stream, the "Halgut", whence the adjective "Hagustaldensis" used by Bede and medieval writers. It was founded as an abbey by St. Wilfrid of York, in 674, on land given by the Northumbrian queen St. Etheldreda.

Kimberley, Nottinghamshire (W3)

Der englische Ortsname "Kimberley" bedeutet "Land von Cyneburga", "Cyneburga-Land", die Endung "-ley" geht zurück auf "leah" = "Wald", "Wiese", Lichtung".

Nach einer Quelle soll der Name "Kimberley", "Kemperlike", "kemper", auf ndl. "kamper" = "Kämpfer" zurückgehen. Allgemein könnte es auch für "Kampfplatz", "Schlachtfeld" stehen.

Ob beide Herleitungen zusammenpassen kann ich nicht beurteilen. Zumindest mal gehen sie in Bezug auf die geografische Herkunft auseinander. Die erste Herleitung dürfte sich auf eine irisch-gälische Quelle beziehen, die zweite auf eine germanische Herkunft. Es bleibt also zu klären, ob "Cyneburga" die gleiche Bedeutung wie "kamper" hat.

Lara Croft Way (W3)

Strassen können auch nach Kunstfiguren benannt werden.

(E?)(L?) http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Lara-Croft-bekommt-eine-eigene-Strasse-942221.html

Lara Croft bekommt eine eigene Straße

Die neue, 36,2 Millionen britische Pfund teure Ringstraße der englischen Stadt Derby wird nach der Schatzjägerin aus dem Computerspiel Tombraider "Lara Croft Way" getauft. Darüber durften die knapp 240.000 Einwohner der Stadt in der Grafschaft Derbyshire online abstimmen.

Von den 27.000 abgegebenen Stimmen bekam Lara Croft 89 Prozent. Ebenfalls als Namenspatron kandidierten Football-Spieler Steve Bloomer, Astronom John Flamsteed sowie Ingenieur George Sorocold. Alle drei - wie auch Lara Croft - stammen aus dem County; Tomb Raider wurde 1996 von der Firma Core Design sogar in der Stadt Derby entwickelt und hat seitdem eine ganze Reihe von Neuauflagen erfahren. Sogar zu einem eigenen Spielfilm (Lara Croft: Tomb Raider) mit Angelina Jolie hat es die Figur Lara Croft des Designers Toby Gard gebracht. (bbe)

Die Stadt ist wohl bewohnt, und treibt einen guten Handel, der aber weit beträchtlicher seyn könnte, wenn die Tamar, welche 1 1/2 Meile davon fließt, bis hierher schiffbar gemacht würde. Die Königinn Elisabeth stiftete hier eine Freyschule. Man sieht noch die Ruinen eines Castelles, welches in alten Zeiten für so fest gehalten wurde, daß man ihm den Beynahmen des fürchterlichen gab.

Rugby (town), Warwickshire (W3)

Der name der Stadt "Rugby" in Warwickshire, England, geht zurück auf die Bezeichnung "Rocheberie" (1086) = dt. "befestigter Platz des *Hroca". Der Suffix engl. "berie" geht zurück auf altengl. "burh" mit der Dativform engl. "byrig", das im 13. Jh. durch altnord. "-by" = dt. "Dorf", "Ort" ersetzt wurde, das dänische Siedler mitbrachten.

Eine andere Theorie führt den Ortsnamen "Rugby" zurück auf "*Rockbury" mit altengl. "*hroc" = eng. "rook" (?= dt. "Turm").

..., it got us to thinking about place-names in England. There are some interesting ones. English place-names aren't quite as bizarre as some of those in California, but we thought you would enjoy them nonetheless.

Warblington, Hampshire (W3)

Der ortsname "Warblington" (1086: "Warblitetone", 1186: "Werblinton") soll auf ein Gehöft zurück gehen, dessen Name sich auf einen altenglischen Frauennamen "Waerblith" bezieht, zusammen mit zwei Suffixen "-ing" und "-tun".

West Malvern, Worcestershire (W3)

"Malvern" geht vermutlich zurück auf brit. "moel" = "kahl", auch "Berg" & "wern" = "Erlen", was also zusammen "erlenbewachsen(er Hügel)" ergibt.

Eine andere Variante ist die Rückführung auf ein altes "moel-bryn" = "the bare hill" = "Kahler berg".

(E?)(L?) http://uk.epodunk.com/profiles/england/west-malvern/3016915.html


Wisley (W3)

"Wisley Gardens" liegt in dem kleinen Ort "Wisley" (zwischen Cobham und Woking) im englischen County Surrey, England. Im "Domesday Book", dem Steuererhebungsbuch aus dem Jahr 1086, das für William the Conquerer erstellt wurde, erscheint "Wisley" als "Wiselei".

Leider konnte ich keinen Hinweis auf die weitere Herkunft des Ortsnamen "Wisley", "Wiselei" finden. Denkbar wäre zumindest, dass es sich um eine Zusammensetzung aus "wise" ("weise", "klug", "erfahren", "einsichtig", "wise man" = "Zauberer") und "lei" handelt. "lei" könnte entweder auf afrz. "ley" = "Art", lat. "legem", lat. "lex" = "Gesetz" oder auf mhd. "lei" = "Fels", "Stein", "Schieferstein", "Steinweg" zurück gehen. Wenn also dieser Ansatz überhaupt in Frage kommt, dann könnte man "Wisley" als "(Ort an dem) kluge Gesetze (erlassen wurden)" (vielleicht für einen alten Gerichtsplatz, auch "Thing" genannt) oder als "(Ort am) Zauberstein / heiligen Stein", "(Ort am) Zauberweg / heiligen Weg".

Da es in Australien aber auch einen Ort namens "Wiseleigh" gibt, könnte es sich bei "Wiselei" auch um eine verkürzte Form davon handeln. Dann käme "leigh", altengl. "leah" = "Wald", "Lichtung", "Wiese" als möglicher Hintergrund in Frage. Dann könnte es sich bei "Wisley", "Wiselei" um eine "helle Lichtung" oder um einen "Zauberwald" handeln.

Es besteht also weitestgehend Ungewissheit zur Herkunft von "Wisley" und ich wäre froh, wenn ein Besucher Näheres dazu beisteuern könnte.

"Wisley" ist Namensgeber für ein Autobahnkreuz (A3 London to Portsmouth trunk road / London Orbital M25 motorway), Junction 10.

The flagship garden of the RHS, Wisley captures the imagination with richly planted borders, luscious rose gardens and the state-of-the-art new Glasshouse.

Gifted to the Society in 1903, Wisley has evolved over time into a world-class garden.

In the trials fields, the finest flowers and vegetables are identified from the countless new introductions. Elsewhere in the garden, cultivation techniques are tried and tested, and a series of model gardens answers the needs of a variety of conditions and circumstances.

Kurzbeschreibung
Gain an insight into the English language via one of the UK's richest dialects: "Geordie". From George Stephenson to The Animals to Viz, the North East has long had a successful creative culture, developing alongside its industrial history. Newcastle in particular has successfully reinvented itself as a centre of the arts, while still maintaining its own regional identity. This book is the definitive guide to the most distinctive element of that identity: the "Geordie dialect". This book is a must for anyone with even a passing interest in the language of the North East, and also provides a thorough examination of the general state of English, from the traditional wit and wisdom of the Geordie perspective.
