Lancaster
Name origin: English Name meaning: habitational name from Lancaster in northwestern England,
named in Old English as ‘Roman fort on the Lune’, from the Lune river,
on which it stands, + Old English cæster ‘Roman fort or
walled city’ (Latin castra ‘legionary camp’). The river name is
probably British, perhaps related to Gaelic slán ‘healthy’,
‘salubrious’.
