Facts About
Hulme
Hulme can be found to come from two separate origins, but in both cases its use is topographical. Firstly it could have originally been given to families who lived on or near to a ‘holm’ which is an Island in a river. In Old English this could have been a more general term for a piece of land surrounded by water. An alternative is that it comes from the Old English ‘holm’ which meant holly, and would have been given as a surname to a person who lived next to a holly bush. |
